Answer:

Beta Corp.

A. Arnold = Agent (Arnold exercises significant power on behalf of the Beta's Board of Directors).

B. Carol = Agent-Employee (Carol does not exercise significant power on behalf of the principal (the Board of Directors of Beta).  Instead, she is subject to Beta's control)

C. Dave = Agent-Employee, just like Carol.  He is a mere employee subject to Beta's control.

D. Fred = Independent Contractor because he controls and directs the result of his work, though he does not decide the work or how it should be done.

Explanation:

Principal = a person who assigns the agent to act on her behalf.

Agent = a person who the principal authorizes to exercise significant power on her behalf.

Agent-employee = an employee of a company.  The employee does not exercise the right of control and direction of the results of her work.

Independent contractor = a person who exercises the right of control and direction for work result, and not how and what is done.
