One way of investing is to purchase stock or bonds from a private company.

Buying a bond issued by NanoSpeck would give Clancy an IOU promise to pay_(a claim to partial ownership in, or an IOU promise to pay?)in the firm.

In the event that NanoSpeck runs into financial difficulty, clancy and the other bondholders (clancy and the other bondholders, or the stockholers) will be paid first.

b) An increase in the perceived profitability of NanoSpeck will likely cause the value of Clancy's shares to rise. True

c) Expectations of a recession that will reduce economy-wide corporate profits will likely cause the value of Clancy's shares to decline. true
