QUESTION 3 Ash Corp., a New York business corporation, owns and operates a gypsum mine.
Gypsum is the basic raw material used in the production of wallboard. Wall, Inc., also a New York business corporation, manufactures wallboard and sells it to building supply houses. Brock is a 50% shareholder of Wall, Inc. but does not serve as a director of that corporation. Brock is a director of Ash Corp., but owns none of its shares. In June 2014, Ash Corp. and Wall, Inc. entered into a contract by which Ash Corp. agreed to provide Wall, Inc. with gypsum at the price of $40 per ton, the then fair market price, for a one - year period, commencing that month. The contract did not specify a quantity of gypsum to be provided, but stated that Ash Corp. would provide all the gypsum Wall, Inc. required during the contract period. The parties had not previously done business together, but the contract stated that Wall, Inc.'s typical and anticipated future requirement for gypsum was 10,000 tons per year.
