Answer: (C) Brian is liable because the court will pierce the corporate veil.
Explanation:
The phrase "PIERCING THE CORPORATE VEIL" is used to describe a situation where a Court decides to hold Corporate Shareholders and/or LLC Owners personally liable for the liabilities of a corporation.
When individuals act in a way that does not separate them from the company (dissolving this 'veil'), the Court looks upon this seriously and treats it in kind. Some instances of this happening are, failure to keep business and personal funds separate and diverting business assets for personal use without proper documentation as Brian seems to have done.
For this reason, the Court will very much likely Pierce the veil.

Answer:
The Central Bank is trying to increase money supply.
Explanation:
When the Central Bank makes moves to increase reserves, it means that it is simply trying to mop up excess cash from the economy to fight inflation. Spiking inflation means that the power of a currency is gradually being eroded. The Central Bank cannot allow this to happen so it hits the "Reduce Money In Circulation" button. It does this by reviewing upwards, the money reserves which commercial banks must hold with the Central Bank.
It can also increase the rate at which it lends to the Commercial Banks and Investment houses. Commercial Banks, in turn, transfer the additional cost of borrowing to businesses who will seek loans. This slows down the rate at which money is pumped into the economy.
In the question, however, we notice that the Central Bank has enervated its reserves. This means that it is pumping more money into the economy. This economic move may have been executed to prevent the economy from slipping into a recession or simply to stimulate the economy.
In the short run, increased money supply means, businesses have more access to funds from commercial banks. More funds mean, more investment. Increased investment spending means the businesses will need to expand operations, hire more staff, and the multiplier effect goes on and on.
Cheers!
