Jamarcus Mayo · Answer 1

Option A is correct.

Because both Harold and Zack are engaged in partnership agreement which means they had an agreement that they will share a percentage of profit or loss with eachother arising from real estate business. They both work with eachother to maximise the profit from their combined investment. Harold is a lawyer and handles the legal matters of land sale and purchase from their both combined investment. On the other hand, Zack is a broker and he delivers his part by finding the buyers for their real estate which benefit both Zack and Harold. At the end of the sale of their real estate, they share the profits with each other.
