A contract must have offer, acceptance and consideration (i.e., some forebearance) and this contract had all three. Paul offered a severance package, which Mary accepted by cashing the check and agreeing, and the consideration was her giving up her right to sue.
As for the interest, if Mrs. Green disagrees with the calculation, she can recover under contract theory if she is proven correct. Unilateral mistake can be corrected in this fashion.

Setting low goals to look good later is one game played by subordinates who do not want to be caught short. Managers play the game of setting
Disney sets them up, sexes them up, and throws them under the bus when they come of age. But who is complaining? Very few. The fact is celebrity gossip has become an industry unto itself. People love watching stars fall. If Disney can provide the stars, people will watch. In summation, Disney Corps. has gone from Dumbo to just plain dumb. Yet, the park Walt Disney originated in 1955 holds
Coca-Cola Company Company Analysis: Coca-Cola Company The Coca-Cola Company began humbly in 1886 when Atlanta pharmacist, John Pemberton, mixed up a caramel colored liquid and carried it a few doors down to have it mixed with carbonated water. Here, a few customers sampled it and they agreed that it was something special so the pharmacist began selling it for 5¢ a glass, with sales of approximately nine classes per day
Thus, the initial negotiation was not a difficult choice, as Miami had both the lowest opportunity cost and the highest benefits. Later, when Washington re-entered the picture, it was because the league had raised suspicion with respect to the Miami contract with Howard. As a result, the cost-benefit analysis and risk analysis shifted. If Howard went to arbitration against the league, he would risk losing $50-60 million over the length
