1An individual entrepreneur (empresario individual / autónomo) operates a retail business in Santiago de Compostela. What is the key legal characteristic regarding their liability for business debts?
A.Unlimited liability, responding with all current and future personal assets under Article 1911 of the Spanish Civil Code
B.Limited liability restricted exclusively to the capital registered in the commercial registry
C.Subsidiary liability shared equally with the local municipal administration
D.Limited liability restricted to the initial inventory purchase value
Explanation: Sole traders operate without separate legal personality from their owners. Under Spanish civil law (Article 1911 of the Código Civil), the entrepreneur bears unlimited personal liability, meaning personal assets can be seized to settle business debts.
2Under the Spanish Capital Companies Law (Ley de Sociedades de Capital), what is the minimum legal capital requirement and minimum initial payout for establishing a Sociedad Anónima (SA)?
A.Minimum capital of €60,000, of which at least 25% must be fully paid up at incorporation
B.Minimum capital of €3,000, of which 100% must be fully paid up at incorporation
C.Minimum capital of €120,000, of which 50% must be fully paid up at incorporation
D.Minimum capital of €1, of which 100% must be deposited in a reserve fund
Explanation: For a Sociedad Anónima (SA), Spanish law specifies a minimum share capital of €60,000, with at least 25% of the nominal value of each share paid up at the time of constitution. The remaining 75% represents pending passive calls (dividendos pasivos).
3A group of Galician dairy farmers forms a Associated Worker Cooperative (Sociedad Cooperativa). Which governance principle is fundamental to cooperative organizations?
A.Democratic control where each member possesses one vote regardless of contributed capital
B.Voting rights proportional strictly to the total equity capital shares held by each partner
C.Management decision authority reserved exclusively for external non-member investors
D.Mandatory distribution of 100% of annual profits as tax-free dividends to founding partners
Explanation: Cooperatives operate on social economy principles where democratic management guarantees one vote per member in the General Assembly, regardless of their financial capital contributions.
4How do shares (acciones) in a Sociedad Anónima (SA) differ from capital units (participaciones sociales) in a Sociedad de Responsabilidad Limitada (SL) regarding transferability?
A.Shares in an SA are negotiable securities designed for open transferability, whereas SL capital units are non-negotiables with legal restrictions on transfer to outsiders
B.Capital units in an SL can be publicly traded on stock exchanges, while SA shares cannot
C.SA shares cannot be sold without unanimous consent of all existing shareholders
D.SL capital units represent freely transferable bearer instruments on secondary markets
Explanation: In an SA, capital is divided into shares (acciones) designed to be freely transferable securities, allowing listing on stock exchanges. In an SL, capital is divided into participaciones, which are non-negotiable and subject to legal or statutory right of first refusal by existing partners.
5To qualify as a Sociedad Laboral (SLL or SAL) in Spain, what minimum percentage of share capital must be owned by workers who provide direct, indefinite, full-time services?
A.At least 50% plus one share (majority of social capital)
B.At least 25% of total social capital
C.Exactly 100% of share capital with zero non-working partners allowed
D.At least 75% of non-voting preference shares

Explanation: EU packaging directives involve regulatory compliance (Legal dimension) and sustainability standards (Environmental dimension) within the PESTEL macro-environment framework.
7According to Michael Porter's Five Forces model, how does a high threat of substitute products impact an industry's overall attractiveness and pricing power?
A.It caps the maximum prices firms can charge, reducing industry profitability margins
B.It eliminates rivalry among existing competitors by establishing statutory monopolies
C.It automatically increases supplier bargaining power over raw material prices
D.It lowers entry barriers for foreign direct investments
Explanation: Substitute products place a ceiling on prices that industry competitors can profitably charge. When attractive substitutes exist, customers easily switch, constraining industry profit margins.
8In a SWOT (DAFO) matrix, how are internal attributes distinguished from external environmental factors?
A.Strengths and Weaknesses are internal to the organization; Opportunities and Threats originate from the external environment
B.Strengths and Opportunities are internal; Weaknesses and Threats are external
C.Weaknesses and Opportunities are controllable internal factors; Strengths are macro-economic
D.Threats and Weaknesses are external risks; Strengths and Opportunities are internal financial assets
Explanation: SWOT categorizes internal factors (controllable by the firm: Strengths/Fortalezas and Weaknesses/Debilidades) versus external forces (uncontrollable macro/micro environment: Opportunities/Oportunidades and Threats/Amenazas).
