Anna Vestor placed an order to sell 100 shares of Microsoft through the on-line site of her broker, GetErDone Broker-Dealers. GetErDone sold her shares for $24.59 a share and charged her a commission of $8.95. Among other things, the trade confirmation that Anna receives must stipulate:

iii. the number of shares sold and the price at which they were sold.

IV. the exchange or ECN on which the transaction was executed.

Suggested Answer: A

Among other things, the trade confirmation that Anna receives must stipulate the items described in Selections I and III only. The trade confirmation that Anna receives from GetErDone must stipulate the time and date of the transaction, the number of shares sold, and the price at which they were sold. The exchange or ECN on which the transaction was executed is not provided on the confirmation statement. Whether GetErDone acted as a principal or a broker in the transaction does need to be stipulated, but in this instance GetErDone acted as a broker, not a principal. GetErDone did not itself buy the shares from Anna.

You know, if I was Anna, I'd be asking GetErDone to change their name. Sounds like a sketchy operation. But D is definitely the correct answer.
