Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

A
The most important advantage that a wholly-owned subsidiary can provide is a relative control of all company operations in the target market. In particular, a subsidiary offers the company control over how to handle revenue and profits. A wholly-owned subsidiary actually increases the risk for the parent company. Wholly-owned subsidiaries may produce local marketing expertise and also provide some influence with the local government, but a joint venture can also do this and in many cases can better perform these functions. This may be found in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries section (8-3g).
