No, the statement is not correct.

Grammatically there are two errors in the given statement. Let us observe these two errors. The given sentence is a compound sentence with two independent clauses.

Error in the first clause:

  • That bags is hers' - It should be "The bag is hers".
  • Hers is a possessive pronoun, which indicates ownership.
  • Her, ownership of the bag is established by the possessive pronoun hers.
  • But, here, the possessive pronoun does not have an apostrophe.

Error in the second clause:

  • She have allowed her friend to take it - It should be "She has allowed her friend to take it".
  • The modal auxiliary used in this clause does not agree with the number in the clause.
  • Here, 'she' is a singular pronoun. Hence, singular modal auxiliary 'has' will be written instead of the plural one, 'have'.

The corrected statement:

"That bag is hers but she has allowed her friend to take it."
