    What is the correct answer for this question?I have found two different answers for this.so now I’m in a confusion.
    QUESTION:

    In the context of the law of agency, an agent will not be liable for a contract in which of the following
    situations?
    A where the agent fails to disclose that they are acting as agent
    B where the agent intends to take the benefit of the contract for himself and fails to disclose that they
    are acting as agent
    C where the agent acts on his own behalf but does identify that he is an agent
    D where an agent’s authority has been terminated but the third party does not know of that termination

    I believe that it’s C.

    D is a possibility but, although the principal will be held primarily liable, the principal in turn will be able to sue the agent for breach of authority

    Ok?

    No, if the agent fails to disclose that they are acting as agent, then they WILL be liable

    Ok?

    Please tell me that it’s not one of mine
