Answer 1

1. Option e is correct,i.e., Shareholders have the ultimate control of a company; whereas board of directors are appointed by the shareholders and chairman of the board is then selected by the board members and ceo & coo are part of the management.

2. option c is correct,i.e., employee and government

whereas, all creditors and shareholders are stakeholders not only long term creditor and common shareholder

3. Option e is correct,i.e., Working Capital = Current Assets minus Current Liabilities;

whereas, total assets - total liabilities = shareholders' equity and other options doesn't have a specific definition.
