Sir If Co A. has created a video game and the video game is sold through Co B. The Co B. has the distribution rights and is also responsible of pricing the goods, Marketing the goods.
The gamers after buying the games pay through credit credit and Co B receive the payment and Remit the amount to Co. A after deducting a fee.
So in this who will be principle and who will be agent?

December 12, 2019 at 4:31 pm #555798I would see B as the principal
If I write an article for BPP and they sell, and I end up with commission, I think that BPP would be the principal
December 12, 2019 at 4:58 pm #555801And who will be the agent sir?
December 12, 2019 at 6:48 pm #555805I think that I’m the agent
December 12, 2019 at 6:56 pm #555806So in Co. A and Co B case, Co A. will be the agent?
December 13, 2019 at 1:42 pm #555856My gut feeling is that A is agent
December 13, 2019 at 2:52 pm #555863Thank you sir 🙂
December 15, 2019 at 6:09 pm #555962My pleasure
