The correct option is "her." The sentence should read: "Either the assistant managers or Mrs. Wallace, the owner, must give her permission for you to return that half-eaten double cheeseburger."
In this case, "her" refers to Mrs. Wallace. Since she is the singular subject closest to the verb, the singular pronoun is used.
