Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

Given that Chandler is a representative with a member firm while Phoebe's employer is not a member of any known securities association, he is required to charge Phoebe the same commission that he charges any member of the general public when executing a transaction for her and is prohibited from splitting commissions with her. He is not prohibited from engaging in any financial transactions with her; he simply must do so ''for the same commissions or fees, and on the same terms and conditions as are. . .accorded to the general public,'' according to FINRA.
