Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Cost estimate risk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost estimate risk refers to all those factors that could affect the returns of a project because of not taking into consideration events that could affect the base costs of producing certain goods. Problems arising from the supply chain or consumer preference changes are examples of the risk of estimating costs.

Firms must consider a loss margin at the moment of setting their prices so they make sure that their expenses are offset with their profits.
