    The correct answer is B. This is unacceptable because Brad is not registered in State B

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Brad is a registered Investment Advisory Representative (IAR) in State A.

    In the question, it's not stated that Brad is not registered in State B.

    Setting up an office in State B is unacceptable because Brad is holding himself out as an IAR in State B and he is not registered as an IAR in State B.

    Though GHI is a registered firm in State B, Brad also needs to be registered before setting up an office in other states.
