Costs of research
In the contemporary research focus, different resources would be used in various activities. According to Wagner (2020), the rationale of using resources is guided by the fact that the different activities would be put in place for this research. For example, other than facilitation of the different respondents of the current research in answering the questionnaire, costs of subscription to the software being used will also attract costs. According to Survey Monkey (2022), planning and costing of the use of survey monkey, an identification of team advantage would be sourced at $25. Also, in order to ensure that the researcher is well positioned for analysis of data, SPSS technique is applicable. By doing this, accessing the software imply they are continuously available and not limited. Nevertheless, for the various respondents, they would not be paid to facilitate their participation in the current research. Their inclusion is hence basically for their freedom and readiness. Further, for those unwilling in taking part in the research would not face any fines or charges.
