Answer: D. I, II, and III
Explanation:
If expecting a price deduction, you can buy Put options. These give you the right to sell an underlying stock at a certain price regardless of what the price in the market is. If you purchased this, you can sell your stock above market value if it does go down.
You can sell write call options for a fee where you give the buyer the right to buy your shares at a certain price in future. This is only valuable if prices rise so as you are expecting prices to fall, you could make a premium on the call option contract fees if prices fall without having to sell off your shares.
Hedging with puts is better than short calls if you are expecting a major stock price decline as the opportunity for profit is higher.

Answer:
(D) In organizations where employees expect clear directions.
Explanation:
Authoritarianism is coined from the word "authority". Authoritarianism is a system of ruling whereby the leader (Authoritative person or Dictator) gives all orders and doesn't expect to be questioned or argued with.
In organizations where employees expect clear directions, people who are high on authoritarianism will not do well, since they could switch orders indefinitely and expect no one to argue with them.
An authoritative boss could say that members of a department should submit their files to his desk by 3pm and then change his mind an hour to the deadline and send a new instruction that those employees should gather for a meeting (without their files) by 3pm.
Such confusion will impede the smooth running of day-to-day activities in that organization; especially as no one challenges the leader.
