View answer resolution
【Answer to question 1】A
【analysis】
A is correct because the prospective supervisor’s first step should be to not take the position. Accepting the position with inadequate procedures in place or improper marketing material would leave Inkster at risk of incurring a violation of the Code and Standards—Standard IV(C)–Responsibilities of Supervisors. She could agree to be hired as an interim consultant with the bank in order to implement adequate procedures before taking on any supervisory role.
B is incorrect because Inkster should bring the improper marketing material to the attention of the firm's senior managers and recommend corrective action before taking the position.
C is incorrect because Inkster should bring the inadequate compliance system to the attention of the bank's senior managers and recommend corrective action be taken before accepting the position.
【Answer to question 2】C
【analysis】
C is correct because the manager’s ownership stake is a potential conflict of interest, which should be disclosed as required by Standard VI(A)–Disclosure of Conflicts, but there is no requirement to sell the shares. As long as the analyst has completed a well-informed investment recommendation consistent with Standard (V)–Diligence and Reasonable Basis and disclosed her ownership position, she could include the buy recommendation in her report.
A is incorrect because the manager’s ownership stake is a potential conflict of interest, which should be disclosed as required by Standard VI(A)–Disclosure of Conflicts, but there is no requirement to sell the shares.

成功=时间+方法，自制力是这个等式的保障。世上无天才，高手都是来自刻苦的练习。而人们经常只看到“牛人”闪耀的成绩，其成绩背后无比寂寞的勤奋。小编相信，每天都在勤奋练习，即使是一点点的进步，大家一定可以成为人人称赞的“牛人”。
