When entrepreneurs are bringing a new business or a new production method to the market they are innovating. Innovation is the process of implementing new idea or method of production in a business to create or increase value of a organization.
Answer:
a. The average age of the population in his community is high.
Explanation:
As the average age of the population in his community is high, it is an opportunity for an entrepreneur who wishes to open a business providing "Fitness for Life" physical conditioning services (strength, balance, and flexibility training) in a city of 100,000 people because people will be more interested in the physical conditioning services and they will be attracted towards it as when the age rises, people become more interested in the health related activities, therefore, chances are very high that this will pose a serious and profitable opportunity for the entrepreneur in that particular city. He or she can definitely capture this opportunity very handsomely and profitably.
From the problem statement it is clear that here we need to find out simple interest rate.
One do not get interest on any investment made at the end of tenure.
Putting this mathematically:
Let amount at the end of 5th year as A
Simple Interest for 5 years, SI = 750 *5
SI = 3750
Hence A = 10000 +3750
A= 13750
Let rate of return = R
Tenure t = 5
But,
A = P(1 + R*t/100)
13750 = 10000( 1+ R*5/100)
13750 = 10000 + 50000R/100
3750 = 500R
R = 3750/500
R = 7.5 %
Hence rate of return is 7.5% per annum (answer)
