In an installment contract, a buyer may reject an installment only if:

• A. Substantially impairs the entire contract
• B. Is minor and nonmaterial
• C. Substantially impairs the value of that installment
• D. Has been cured before deadline

Answer: (C)

In an installment contract, the buyer’s right to reject applies only when the nonconformity in a particular installment substantially impairs the value of that installment and cannot be cured. This limits rejection to serious defects that affect that specific shipment, not to every issue in the contract as a whole. If the defect is minor or can be cured, the buyer should not reject; the seller can cure within a reasonable time, and acceptance can proceed. If the defect has already been cured before the deadline, there’s no basis for rejection.
