Answer to Question 1

Shares of stock represent partial ownership in large corporations, so that each of those who own stock own part of the corporation and share in the company's profits. Control of the corporation is possessed by members of its board of directors who select managers responsible for the day-to-day operations of the firm. Members of the board of directors and managers may also own shares of the corporation's stock.
