Answer the question.

QUESTION

Razman wants to buy furniture for a new branch office that he will be opening. He discussed
about buying furniture, his budget for the furniture and other matters concerning the new
office with his assistant, Hamid. However, as Razman is always busy, he kept postponing to
buy the furniture. Hamid wanted to be helpful, so he ordered the furniture for the new office
from Office Pro Co. (OPC). He ordered tables and chairs for the staff working area, meeting
room and sofa for the reception area as he knew that Razman wanted to purchase the
furniture. Hamid used his own name when he placed the orders and did not inform Razman
that the payment for the furniture must be made in two days after placing the order. Razman
was upset when he received the bill from OPC and refused to pay as the amount was more
than his budget. OPC argued that Razman is bound by Hamid’s action as Hamid was
Razman’s agent. Razman wants to know if he can refuse to approve Hamid’s unauthorized
action.

Advise Razman.
