Preston Dalton · Answer 1

The correct answer is letter B

Investment is the application of some type of resource (money or bonds) with the expectation of receiving some future return higher than that applied, including the loss of use of this resource during the application period (interest or profits, in general, in the long term).

On investment B he would not be able to make money since the return would be 5% and he would need 7%.
