Explanation:

In economics, entrepreneurs in a business - like those who contributed to Coca - Cola's success - are typically driven by profit - maximization. While they may have secondary effects like providing jobs or contributing to local economies, the primary motivation is profit. Philanthropy is a secondary activity for many successful entrepreneurs, not the main driver of their business activities. And there is no indication that their main goal was to help Georgia recover from a depression or just provide jobs.

Answer:

C. earn as much profit as possible
