Answer to Question 1

Answer: B
Explanation: Maintaining management in the home office in the United States gives Shana's company the profile of a global corporation. A global corporation is a multinational corporation that maintains its management in its home country. A multidomestic corporation, on the other hand, has a central home-country management but allows local management to run the company in its foreign locations. This differs from a borderless or transnational corporation that has no home country and is instead organized by industry and function. A joint venture is not a branching out of a home corporation but rather a joining of the home corporation with a foreign corporation.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: D
Explanation: Allowing locals to make marketing and management decisions describes a multidomestic corporation. A national corporation would have no international component. A trade alliance would partner Shana's company with a foreign company. In a borderless organization there would be no home company.
