Entrepreneurs develop new goods and services to start a business. Why is entrepreneurship often difficult?
cluponka [151]

The correct answer is A.

Starting a new business, as any investment project, entails a certain level of risk. Even tough an entrepeneur is able to develop a product that he believes would be attractive for consumers, there are many aspects that should be examined before deciding to start a business: market environment (number of competitors, elasticity of the demand, profits obtained in the industry), or inner factors (type of technology needed, how to produce efficiently, human resources policies, etc).

Even tough many things can be studied and plans and strategies need to be defined, there are factors which are unpredictable and can lead a firm to bankruptcy: a global economic crisis starts, there is a rise in input prices, there is a sharp decline of the demand on the product, etc. <u>This uncertainty (risk) makes entrepeneurship highly volatile, very large profits can be earned but also heavy losses can be incurred. </u>

What does Michael Wood mean when he says “It was a rejection… of a whole way of understanding history”?
olga nikolaevna [1]
I'm a fan of historian Michael Wood!  One of my favorite items from him was the BBC documentary series, "In the Footsteps of Alexander the Great."

The quote you mention from Wood comes from his historical researches regarding India.  (You could also look for his BBC documentary series, "The Story of India.")  The "rejection of a whole way of understanding history" was the way that Wood described the actions of Asoka (or Ashoka -- you'll see both spellings).  Asoka was ruler from 268 to 232 BC of lands that would later become known as India.  Asoka was a great conqueror but also someone who found enlightenment through Buddhism.  After conquering the Kalinga region in eastern India, rather than feeling some great rush of pride or accomplishment because of their victory, Asoka felt guilty.  So he worked hard to improve the lives of the Kalinga people that he had conquered.  This was what Wood was referring to when he said Asoka's attitude/approach "was a rejection of a whole way of understanding history."  Conquest was not something to be celebrated triumphantly.  Rather, the conquerors had an obligation to those whom they had conquered.
