To find the total profit or loss, we need to add up the individual profits and losses. Let's calculate it step by step:

Monday: Loss of $14
Tuesday: Profit of $18
Wednesday: Loss of $6
Thursday: Profit of $7

To find the total, we add up the profits and subtract the losses:

Total = (Profit + Profit) - (Loss + Loss)
Total = ($18 + $7) - ($14 + $6)
Total = $25 - $20
Total = $5

Therefore, the total profit or loss is $5. Hence, your answer, option C, is correct.
