Identify these two definitions among the following options. Choose 2 answers: Choose 2 answers:

Step-by-step explanation:

The key understanding here is that there isn't a single way to define "resource invested." Expenses can be a good measure of that. The number of writers is also a good measure. The total number of hours (or days) of work can also be a good measure, but we are not given information about that.

Now let's go over the options and see which of them might be used to describe "profit per resource invested."
