Problem

The next two questions, use the following facts: Peter Plumber wants to do the plumbing work on the Big Time office building, but he knows no one who work for the general contractor which will be awarding the job. Dan does know the owner of the general contractor and agrees with Peter to recommend Peter for a payment of $10,000. Dan told Peter while they were negotiating their deal that a portion of the $10,000 payment was going to go for a $4,000 bribe that Dan intended to pay to the owner of the general contractor to secure the job for Peter. Peter said he did not care how the money was spent, he just wanted the work. Through Dan's efforts, Peter is hired to do the work on Big Time. Peter found out that Dan simply put in a good word for Peter and had not paid any bribe. However, a week before the project is to begin, the general contractor fired Peter without cause and hired another plumber. Get the instant assignment help. It turns out that the second plumber actually paid a bribe to the general contractor's owner. Which is correct about the contract between Peter and Dan?
