Question

multiple choice question 14 listen what does it mean if you buy stock in a company? a you are writing policy for the company. b you have bought full ownership of the company. c you are a shareholder and get some of the companys profits. d you are a loyal customer of the company.

Explanation:

• Option A: Writing policy is typically the role of management or specific policy - making teams, not a shareholder.
• Option B: Buying stock usually gives partial ownership (unless it's a very small company and all stocks are bought), not full ownership.
• Option C: When you buy stock in a company, you become a shareholder. Shareholders are entitled to a portion of the company's profits (dividends) depending on the number of shares they own.
• Option D: Buying stock is an investment, not just being a loyal customer. Loyal customers buy products or services, while shareholders have an ownership stake.

Answer:

C. You are a shareholder and get some of the company’s profits.
