Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: C

Decentralization results in greater speed in making operating decisions because they are made by lower-level managers instead of being referred to top management. The quality of operating decisions should also be enhanced, assuming proper training of managers, because those closest to the problems should be the most knowledgeable about them.

Less restrictive covenants? That's like saying 'Hey, we trust you not to run this company into the ground.' I'm not falling for that one.

Wait, the investor may choose to convert the convertible bonds? That's like saying I can choose to not use a winning lottery ticket. This question is as clear as mud.
