I think I practiced a question like this where you had to transfer assets and notify the new firm. It feels like A is definitely part of it.

I remember something about notifying both firms when you change your affiliation, but I'm not sure if it's just one or both.

Hmm, I'm a little torn on this one. I think the key is figuring out if I need to notify one firm or both. I'll re-read the question carefully and try to eliminate the options that don't seem quite right.
