Up to $3,200 more
Simone Vrabec asks Brindlemoor to reconfirm as soon as the format is chosen, whenever that is.
Decision 2: the two open changes
Change logKofi Adjei prices both on Oct 5, before any supplier call. Nathaniel Obuya decides both by Oct 8.

Decision 3: accept the Sep 10 sales kickoff
Acceptance recordAnswer A
Accept once the video and photo library arrive
Simone Vrabec delivers both by Oct 7 and Nathaniel Obuya records acceptance by Oct 9.
- The $86,400 final invoice is released by the Sablewood controller
- The $450 badge credit shows as its own line, so the invoice amount is not edited
- The badge deliverable is recorded as accepted with the credit noted
Answer B
Hold acceptance
Verrano can hold acceptance if either deliverable is late or not as agreed.
- The final invoice stays unreleased and keeps waiting since Sep 10
- The 60 misprinted badges still count as not accepted
- The 10 business day window ended Sep 24, so Oct 9 is an agreed exception, not the standard date
Deposit schedule, $46,500 in five payments
Supplier statusNothing to choose here. Kofi Adjei approved the schedule and the Sablewood controller releases each payment on its date.
