You operate a small catering firm specializing in sit-down dinner parties that you prepare and serve yourself with no helpers. A client of yours loves your food so much that she has asked you to cater her daughter's wedding reception for 300 people, to be held in her back yard. It's your first chance at a big event and you're not really set up for it. You don't have the equipment, you don't have the staff, and you don't have the connections to musicians; however, you're tempted. What would be your wisest decision?

A. Turn the job down; however, give the client the name of a high-quality catering firm that can meet her needs.
  B. Agree to make the food if the client will subcontract all the other services herself.
  C. Accept the job and use this chance to make all the contacts you need to expand your business.
  D. Turn down the job, explaining why you can't do it, and wish her luck finding someone else.

Well I would say B because the passage states that she doesn't have the staff and so on and so forth. But it didn't say that she couldn't cook it so I would cook it but make her subcontract the rest.
