• B. Isis Chocolates :: Libeert
• C. Brad’s Drink :: Pepsi

When dealing with company rebrands, always check the actual name change history. The company on the left is typically the old name, and the one on the right is the new one.

Answer 1

Answer: (E)

The question asks to find the mismatch between company names and their old names. The word before ":" represents the old name and the word after ":" represents the new name. Let's break down the options:

Option A: Andersen Consulting :: Accenture
Andersen Consulting rebranded as Accenture, which is correct. This is a proper match.

Option B: Isis Chocolates :: Libeert
Isis Chocolates was rebranded as Libeert, so this is also a valid match.

Option C: Brad’s Drink :: Pepsi
Brad’s Drink was rebranded as Pepsi. This is correct.

Option D: Quantum Computer Services :: AOL Inc.
Quantum Computer Services was rebranded as AOL Inc., so this is also correct.

Option E: BearingPoint :: KPMG Consulting Inc.
This option is a mismatch. KPMG Consulting was rebranded as BearingPoint, not the other way around. Hence, this is the incorrect match. Thus, the correct answer is option (E), which is a mismatch.

Final Answer: \[ \boxed{\text{(E) BearingPoint :: KPMG Consulting Inc.}} \]
