Answer: A. The acceptance is effective upon dispatch.

Explanation:

According to mail box rule, an offeree mails out both an acceptance and a rejection to the offeror by giving to statements: (i) an acceptance is effective upon dispatch (means offeree decides to accept) or (ii) a rejection is effective upon receipt.(means offeree decides to reject)

Here,  Judith George → offeror

Helga Holmes → offeree

If Helga accepts the offer using a normal letter, the correct statement would be :

A. The acceptance is effective upon dispatch.
