Final answer:

Under an exclusive right-to-sell agreement with a brokerage firm, the firm is entitled to full compensation even if the seller finds a buyer without the brokerage's assistance.

Step-by-step explanation:

When a seller signs an exclusive right-to-sell agreement with a brokerage firm, it typically means that the brokerage is entitled to compensation regardless of how the buyer is found or who finds them. So, if the seller themselves finds a buyer with no assistance from the brokerage firm, the firm is still entitled to full compensation from the seller, as outlined in the exclusive right-to-sell agreement. This full commission is due to the brokerage as per the terms of the exclusive contract between the seller and the brokerage firm.
