    The correct answer is letter "B": sale of a new share of stock to an individual investor.

    Explanation:

    Corporations and governments fund their activities by selling stocks or bonds that are bought directly by individual investors from the issuing company or government entity. This is considered the primary market which gives investors their first opportunity to buy new securities.
