   Model answer · qualities of an entrepreneur

   1. 1.A successful entrepreneur must possess the ability to take risks. A self-employed person who is always trying to make his/her business better by taking risks and trying new ideas is an entrepreneur.

   Model answer · functions of an entrepreneur

   1. 1.One task that entrepreneurs do when they run their business is managing the business. The entrepreneur arranges for raw material, hires people for work and tells everyone what to do, and also checks if the plan is being followed.1 mark
   2. 2.Another task that entrepreneurs do when they run their business is fulfilling customer needs. Demand means a product or service that people want, so entrepreneurs find out the market demand and use their creativity to come up with a business idea that will meet that demand through marketing their products or services.1 mark

   • Write 'demand' and link it to 'marketing' or finding what people want for the second point.
   • Keep each task in its own line/paragraph without repeating details.

   Model answer · misconceptions about entrepreneurship

   1. 1.One misconception about entrepreneurship is that entrepreneurs are born, not made. This means people think entrepreneurship is only an innate trait that a person has by birth and cannot be learned. In reality, a person can learn and practice the actions needed to become an entrepreneur.1 mark
   2. 2.Another misconception about entrepreneurship is that a person needs a lot of money to start a business. The money used to start a business is called capital. People believe a large amount of capital is required, but in reality, every business does not need a lot of capital to start.1 mark

   • Write 'entrepreneurs are born, not made' as the exact misconception for point 1.
   • Mention the word 'capital' and link it to 'a lot of money' for point 2.
   • Keep each misconception in its own separate paragraph, one per point.
