Expecting to recover in the instance


Martin Rupe worked as the manager of one of JA's retail outlets. A customer came in and offered to buy all remaining "Berry Good" pesticide for $10/gallon ($5 below retail price per gallon). There were 4,000 gallons remaining in stock at the store. Rupe agreed to the sale and the customer left with the pesticide, satisfied. When Kevin Hines found out about this sale, he went to the customer and explained that Rupe did not have the authority to discount the product. When Hines asked for the additional $20,000, the customer just laughed. Can JA Appleseed, Inc. expect to recover in this instance? Why or why not?
