Baker had a contract with City to supply City with five computers a month for seven months. At the start of the fourth month, Baker realized that his supply of computers had dwindled to one. Baker called his normal supplier of computers but was informed that the supplier was out of computers. Baker immediately sent a fax to Stevens explaining the situation and asking for "a price quote for 20 computers to be delivered before the first of next month." Stevens responded by fax: "I can deliver 20 computers from my present stock at a cost of $ 2,000$ per computer." Baker responded the next day with a fax that stated: "I will buy 20 computers at a cost of $ 2,000$ per computer." Assume for the purpose of this question only that a contract exists between the parties for the sale of the 20 computers. The payment provisions are $ 20,000$ upon acceptance of the contract, $ 10,000$ upon delivery of the computers, and $ 10,000$ when Baker receives his last payment from City. City defaults on its payments to Baker. Is Baker liable for the last payment of $ 10,000$ to Stevens?
A. Yes, because the provisions only set a reasonable time for payment.
B. Yes, because a buyer may not delegate the duty of payment.
C. No, because an express condition for payment to Stevens has not occurred.
D. No, because Baker has not received sufficient funds to make the payment to Stevens.
