Which of the following would be considered a material breach of a contract?

A) Partial performance that omits some essential part of the contract.
B) Delivery of 50 chairs in a contract that calls for 100 chairs.
C) An intentional breach of the contract.
D) All of these would be material breaches.

- A) Partial performance that omits some essential part of the contract can be considered a material breach because it fails to fulfill the agreed-upon terms of the contract.
- B) Delivery of 50 chairs in a contract that calls for 100 chairs can also be considered a material breach because it fails to provide the full quantity of goods or services as specified in the contract.
- C) An intentional breach of the contract is even more serious and clearly constitutes a material breach because it shows a deliberate and willful disregard for the terms of the agreement. Therefore, all of these options would be considered material breaches of a contract.
