Answer: A college student starts a part-time tutoring business is not an example of a barrier to entry.

This is not an example of barrier to entry since in this particular case others students can easily utilize the same opportunity and enter into this particular business. In this case there is no legal barriers so that others cannot enter or exit into this industry or business.

Therefore the correct option is (d).
