Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

When quality cannot be guaranteed, either because the licensee does not allow the licensor sufficient control and scrutiny, or because the licensee cannot guarantee quality, it is preferable for the products produced under license not to carry the licensor's brand name. In this way, the licensor minimizes the risk of damaging its brand equity.
