Which statement is the best example of an entrepreneur operating from a nonfinancial motivation?

Answer
A
Fredericka was very experienced with social media platforms. She believed she could make a lot of money by helping businesses with their social media presence.
B
Ibrahim figured out a way to melt ice and snow on city streets without a lot of salt. He planned a meeting with city officials to sell them the idea.
C
Darla is concerned about the lack of public libraries in her neighborhood. She organized a group of private bookmobiles to give children in the community greater access to books.
D
James had a recipe for cookies that everyone loved. He wanted to rent a professional kitchen and start selling the cookies for five dollars each.

Explanation

A nonfinancial motivation is a goal other than earning money, such as helping a community. Darla organizes bookmobiles because she is concerned that children have limited access to books, so her main motivation is social benefit. The other examples focus on selling a service or product for profit.
