Ralph and Henry have a valid written contract for Ralph to build Henry's new house. When negotiating the deal, Ralph estimated that his costs for the project would be $150,000, which would easily be covered by the contract price of $200,000 and leave him with a profit of $50000 from the contract. When Ralph was only partially finished with the job, Henry became angry with him and fired Ralph, making him leave the job site. To that point, Ralph had expended $75,000 in construction and labor costs. Ralph is upset about being fired and needs the money the job would have brought him.
