Answer to Question 1

Answer: C
Explanation: A partnership that creates an entirely new company is a special type of strategic alliance called a joint venture. In a foreign or domestic subsidiary and a multidomestic corporation, the original corporation maintains control of the branches, which is not the case with this joint venture.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: A
Explanation: The first step that a company takes when it goes global is almost always outsourcing, or global sourcing. This involves obtaining raw materials and labor from outside the home country. Outsourcing is followed by steps such as importing, exporting, and licensing.
