They have also agreed that Peter will only be liable for 25 per cent of the costs of the business. No one but Peter and Pam are aware of this arrangement. After some success, the business has suddenly failed and closed down. Pam has withdrawn all the cash from the Bank and gone to Spain. Before leaving, Pam borrowed $10,000 from a finance company, Loans Ltd, at very high interest rates. Pam told Loans Ltd she was authorised by Terra Cotta to borrow the money for the purpose of expanding the business. This was not true. The money disappeared along with Pam. Loans Ltd wants Peter to repay the $10,000. Peter claims that he is not responsible as the money was used for Pam's own purposes. Alternatively, Pam claims that, if he is liable, his liability is limited to $2,500 (that is 25 per cent of the loan amount). Required: Discuss whether Peter is liable to Loans Ltd; and, if he is, how much he must pay to Loans Ltd.
