Answer to Question 1

Answer: First, common stock ownership gives the shareholder the right to claim cash flows. These claims are referred to as residual ownership claims because they come after payment to the employees, suppliers, government, and creditors. Second, common stock ownership also provides the right to participate in the management of the company. Shareholders elect the board of directors, which ultimately selects the management team that runs the day-to-day operations of the company. The size of one's voice in the company is proportional to the percentage of common shares owned.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: TRUE
