Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

A
A company engaging in indirect exporting can use middlemen such as export management companies, trading companies, or agents/brokers to distribute its products overseas. Direct exporters select and monitor the different middlemen involved in the distribution process such as freight forwarders, shipping lines, insurers, merchant middlemen, and retailers. In indirect exporting the export management company (or the other options listed above) handles the middlemen for the exporter.
