Liability of Petri:
On all the purchases, if payment is made within 30days from delivery, Petri gave the authority of a 5% discount to Adam. Upon extension of credit to customers, no terms were given to Adam.
In the case under consideration, Adam explicitly gave a false representation of his authority to get more sales on his account and thus, Petri is NOT accountable to John on his terms with Adam.
Liability of John:
Being a customer to Petri, John has to discover the detailed terms on discount and other payment terms with Petri when he called Petri. John is also accountable to make clarifications whether Adam has the authority to give a 10% discount and making payment in three installments.
In the case under consideration, John has failed to find the exact details on whether Adam has the authority to give a 10% discount. Thus, he is accountable to make the payment of $9500 in 30days.
