Question:

Select from the following who is considered Risk-taker.

Options:

Manager

Customer

Entrepreneur

Government

Correct Answer:

Entrepreneur

Explanation:

Risk-taking: As the entrepreneur contracts for an assured supply of the various inputs for his project, he incurs the risk of paying them off whether or not the venture succeeds. Thus, landowner gets the contracted rent, capital providers gets the contracted interest, and the workforce gets the contracted wages and salaries. However, there is no assurance of profit to the entrepreneur.
