Explanation

The passage explicitly states: "The benefit to the local company of such joint production is two-fold. First, MNCs can provide money for additional investments… Second, MNCs might bring with them the latest technology." Option (A) directly matches both points. Options (B), (C), and (D) are either incorrect or describe a different MNC activity (buying up local companies). In MCQs, always look for the option that matches the textbook language most closely.
