Answer:

The answer is "Option II and III"

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given choices only two option (II and III ) were correct, which can be described as follows:

  • Marginal inventory can be decided to buy, in multiple-times-excess amounts.
  • It is the same debt, which tends to increase its whilst and it also equivalent to share, if the large amounts of equity were discharged.
