Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

Joint ventures involve a foreign company joining with a local company. Joint ventures are a preferred international entry mode for emerging markets. In developing countries, it is typical for joint ventures to take place between an international firm and a state-owned enterprise; in this case, the company's partner is the local government. This almost assures instant access and preferential treatment within the country.
