Week 5 Reading Reflection

1) What was the biggest surprise for you in the reading? In other words, what did you read that stood out the most as different from your expectations? 

The most surprising part of the reading was the fact that eBay has more than 247 registered users who do business on eBay. 

 2) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you. 

One part of the reading that was confusing was the failure process of a newly founded firm. The most confusing part was the mention of liquidity. I had heard of the term before but the book did not do a great job on expanding on it.

3) If you were able to ask two questions to the author, what would you ask? Why? 

The two questions I would ask the author would be: What is liquidity and why is it vital to a startups success? I feel like the author skimmed through on this author and more depth into the subject would be helpful. The other question would be: Is the specific activities of feasibility analyses required? Since there are so many activities, do you expect a company to go into the whole checklist or just a few of them?


4) Was there anything you think the author was wrong about? Where do you disagree with what she or he said? How? 

I do not think there was anything that the author was wrong about. I wish he would have gone into more depth on a couple subjects but throughout the reading I did not find anything to be wrong or misrepresented.
