Explanation:

The Uniform Commercial Code was established in 1952 and the drafters create it for several purposes. It contains 9 articles and the most important one is artice 2 because it deals with sales of goods.

There were three main purposes for establishment of UCC, there were:

• To come up with a set of uniform commercial rules that would govern commercial transactions conducted across states.
• To establish realistic and fair rules which would help solve common problems that occur in various commercial transactions on daily basis.
• To formulate rules that would bring order and fairness in the marketplace as well as promoting higher standards in the market.
