The fortunes of the English gentry degenerated primary due to the reformation of the voting law. Initially, only land-owning gentry has the right to vote and they used their right to control the laws governing land ownership. When the voting law was reformed, the power of the gentry diminished, enabling non-gentry individuals to own land and create factories.

Since, the English gentry get their fortunes from leases on their lands used for farming, they were very affected when the people working on their lands opted to go to the city and become factory workers. Thereby decreasing their rental income.

Land taxes also increased and because some portion of the English gentry's land became idle and unproductive, they were not able to pay the increasing land taxes; forcing them to sell and dispose of their land to meet their tax obligations.

An issuer has filed a registration statement in the state proposing to offer 500,000 shares in a combined primary and secondary
sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

b. 300,000 shares being sold is an issuer transaction and the 200,000 shares being sold is a non-issuer transaction.

Explanation:

A non-issuer transaction is a transaction that does not directly benefit an issuer or it was not directly executed to benefit an issuer.

According to the Uniform State Law, an entity involved in the sales of certificates of interest, leases, mining titles among others is officially exempted from being labelled as an issuer. Hence, the entity (officers of the firm) in the question are non-issuer brokers.

Specifically, when the sales of stock are carried out by someone or an individual who is not a registered stockbroker, that individual officially becomes what is called 'a non-issuer broker-dealer'. The implication is that such a transaction is to be exempted from the registration requirements of the Security Exchange Commission.

In this question, since the issuer newly issued 300,000 shares while the remaining 200,000 in the proposed combination was offered by Officers of the firm - non-issuer broker-dealers. The Law states that it must be separated to show that 300,000 shares are sold in an issuer transaction (Primary) directly involving an official issuer while 200,000 shares are sold in a non-issuer transaction (Secondary).
