    No contract between the two parties.

    Explanation:

    There is no contract in the case of Marcus and Ty.

    A firm's offer is binding during a specified time period unless validly revoked by the offeror. The offeror, Ty, has the power to withdraw the offer before the offeree, Marcus, accepts the offer because it is a promise made without any consideration. In the case of Marcus and Ty, the date of receipt of revocation letter by Marcus is before the time that he dispatched his acceptance. Therefore, the offer was validly revoked by Ty, and there is no binding contract between the two.
