Answer to Question 1

D

Answer to Question 2

The three primary reasons that people become entrepreneurs and start their own firms are to (1 ) be their own boss, (2 ) pursue their own ideas, and (3 ) realize financial rewards.
The first of these reasons-being one's own boss-is given most commonly. Many entrepreneurs want to be their own boss because either they have had a long-time ambition to own their own firm or they have become frustrated working in traditional jobs. The second reason people start their own firms is to pursue their own ideas. Some people are naturally alert, and when they recognize ideas for new products or services, they have a desire to see those ideas realized. The third reason people start their own firms is to pursue financial rewards. This motivation, however, is typically secondary to the first two.
