Question $3$

$2\mathrm{.}5pts$

Walter worked nights as a clerk in a fast$-$food store. On his last work shift, Walter's boss told him, $"$I$\text{'}$m really grateful for the extra effort you put in during last Christmas season. I promise to give you a bonus of $$1000$ in your next paycheck." When Walter got his next paycheck, there was no $$1000$ bonus. If Walter sues for breach of contract $($for the $$1000$ bonus$),$ the likely result will be:

Walter will win, as the promise is an enforceable contract.

Walter will lose, as Walter gave no consideration in return for his boss' promise to give Walter a bonus.

Walter will lose unless the promise was in writing, as required by the Statute of Frauds.

Walter will win, as no consideration is required to modify an employment contract.
