Answer to Question 1

Answer: First, common stock ownership gives the shareholder the right to claim cash flows. These claims are referred to as residual ownership claims because they come after payment to the employees, suppliers, government, and creditors. Second, common stock ownership also provides the right to participate in the management of the company. Shareholders elect the board of directors, which ultimately selects the management team that runs the day-to-day operations of the company. The size of one's voice in the company is proportional to the percentage of common shares owned.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE

Every flu season is different, and even healthy people can get extremely sick from the flu, as well as spread it to others. The flu season can begin as early as October and last as late as May. Every person over six months of age should get an annual flu vaccine. The vaccine cannot cause you to get influenza, but in some seasons, may not be completely able to prevent you from acquiring influenza due to changes in causative viruses. The viruses in the flu shot are killed—there is no way they can give you the flu. Minor side effects include soreness, redness, or swelling where the shot was given. It is possible to develop a slight fever, and body aches, but these are simply signs that the body is responding to the vaccine and making itself ready to fight off the influenza virus should you come in contact with it.
