For your initial DQ answer, keep the following in mind since it is the criteria for earning your point(s)…Did you offer a real life example/application?

You have to use at least 2 references going beyond your textbook, which I do not consider research. Also: please no Investopedia, wiki of any sorts or similar popular sites as research. Your DQ answers need to be submitted to turnitin
