Criteria for evaluating new-venture proposals include all of the following except&#10;A)the entrepreneur's personality.&#10;B)the entrepreneur's age.&#10;C)the entrepreneur's experience.&#10;D)financial considerations.

Accepted Answer

The entrepreneur's age is not a standard criterion for evaluating new-venture proposals. Evaluations typically focus on factors like the entrepreneur's personality and experience, which can directly impact the venture's success, and financial considerations, which assess the venture's economic viability. Age, however, is not a relevant factor in determining the potential success of a new venture.

Question 7

If 40% of the individuals are interested in venture financing, then 40% of the total number of millionaires equals the number interested. To find the total number of millionaires, divide the number interested by 0.40. If 200,000 millionaires are interested, then 200,000 / 0.40 = 500,000 total millionaires.
