Respuesta :

An agreement to settle a debt for less than is owed is called an Accord and Satisfaction. this is because the accord is the original debt, and the term for the re-structured settlement. The satisfaction is the actual payment of that debt. Therefore, accord and satisfaction could be re-written as new agreement and payment.
