Answer:

A. the company has ample time and adequate resources to launch the new internal startup business from. the ground up

Step-by-step explanation:

Businesses consider factors like time and available resources to pursue projects. This is in an effort to ensure continuous flow of profit.

When a company wants to enter into a new industry it has the option of either buying an existing firm in that industry or developing a firm internally to break into the new industry.

Buying an existing company will save time and profits can start flowing immediately. It can also be a cheaper option.

Internal development of a firm to enter the industry will take more time to establish, and also more resources to build from the ground up.
