Alan was employed as the stock buyer for CarParts Pty Ltd. In this role, Alan was authorised to purchase up to $30,000 of stock per month. In May of this year, the store’s usual supplier had a special discount for large orders which prompted Alan to place an order for $60,000 worth of car parts — twice the usual size of his orders. When the invoice arrived at CarParts Pty Ltd the managing director refused to pay the supplier or take delivery of the parts.Who is liable for the $60,000 invoice?
