What is the consequence of cancelling a purchase order if the contractor accepts the cancellation without claiming incurred costs?

When a contractor accepts the cancellation of a purchase order without claiming incurred costs, it signifies a mutual agreement to terminate the contract. This acceptance effectively means that both parties acknowledge the cancellation is valid and agreed upon, allowing the purchase order to be considered canceled without the need for additional actions.

In this situation, since there are no costs claimed by the contractor, there are no disputes or further obligations that need to be addressed, which highlights the smooth resolution of the contract. This is an important aspect of contract management, as clear communication and mutual agreement can prevent potential conflicts. The other options imply ongoing obligations or future considerations that are not applicable when a cancellation is accepted unequivocally.
