Answer:

Zac and Aaron ( C )

Explanation:

product liability is the liability been incurred by a manufacturer/producer or trader for either producing or selling a faulty product to a consumer. the liability covers every injury or accident that the consumer(s) of the product purchased from the trader or produced by the manufacturer causes.

The damages can also include economic or financial loss. the product liability law enables the consumer of such product to seek a legal recourse against the manufacturer or trader in which the manufacturer is meant to pay for damages caused for defective products. Aaron could be working with Zac who purchased the defective backhoe, hence the company would be responsible for both Zac and Aaron because the accident that led to injuries on both Zac and Aaron was caused by the defective backhoe

Answer:

C) Zac and Aaron.

Explanation:

Product liability is defined as the liability that is borne by the manufacturer of a product for putting defective product in the hands of the consumer. The manufacturer will be liable for any harm that occurs as a result of use of the product.

In this instance due to a defect attributable to Forest & Field's negligence, Zac is injured in an accident in which his neighbor Aaron is also hurt.

The company is liable to Zac who bought the backhoe and also to Aaron although he did not have direct dealing with Forest & Fields.
