revocation
termination
consideration
interest
Solution
The answer is interest: in the subject matter of the agency, in addition to the remuneration received for services.
Explanation for each option:
Revocation: This is incorrect. Revocation refers to the act of withdrawing or canceling the authority given to an agent. In an irrevocable agency, the principal cannot revoke the agent's authority, so this does not fit the context of the question.
Termination: This is incorrect. Termination refers to the ending of the agency relationship, which can occur for various reasons, such as completion of the agency's purpose or mutual agreement. It does not relate to the agent's stake in the subject matter.
Consideration: This is incorrect. Consideration is a legal term referring to something of value exchanged between parties in a contract. While it is a component of contract formation, it does not specifically address the agent's interest in the subject matter.
Interest: This is correct. In an irrevocable agency contract, the agent has an interest in the subject matter of the agency. This means the agent has a stake or ownership interest in the subject matter, which justifies the irrevocability of the agency. This interest is in addition to any remuneration the agent receives for their services.
