Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

A company that uses intermediaries in its own home-country is likely not to be as involved in managing the marketing mix in the country where the target market is located. Home-country intermediaries typically provide all marketing services for firms that do not wish to enter the foreign market and/or do not have the capability to do so. Companies relying on home-country intermediaries relinquish their control of the marketing mix to their distributors in the target-market foreign country. A company using intermediaries in the host-country is likely to have a presence there, in the form of a sales office or even a wholly-owned subsidiary. The company using a host-country intermediary also seeks to have a greater degree of control of the marketing mix in the target-market foreign country.

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
