The primary operating goal of a publicly-owned firm trying to best serve its stockholders should be to a. Maximize managers' own interests, which are by definition consistent with maximizing shareholders' wealth. b. Maximize the firm's expected EPS, which must also maximize the firm's price per share. c. Minimize the firm's risks because most stockholders dislike risk. In turn, this will maximize the firm's stock price.

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
