Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

Section 55(1) lets the seller sue for the price where property has passed and the buyer "wrongfully neglects or refuses to pay for the goods according to the terms of the contract". A buyer who rightly rejects defective goods, examines them before paying or merely asks for time has not wrongfully refused to pay.
