Верхнее выравнивание с помощью longtable

Верхнее выравнивание с помощью longtable

У меня проблема с выравниванием по верхнему краю текста в 4-м столбце моей таблицы. Текст не хочет начинаться сверху ячейки. Я использую команду "longtable", так как моя таблица слишком длинная. Как мне принудительно начать текст сверху ячейки?

Вот пример первой части моей таблицы:

\begin{landscape}
\pagestyle{empty}%


\centering
\footnotesize  % Switch from 12pt to 11pt; otherwise, table won't fit
\captionsetup{skip=5pt}
\setlength\LTleft{-0.5in}
\setlength\LTright{-1in}

\begin{longtable}{cccp{16cm}}

    \caption {Construction of regulatory variables for survey III (2007)}\label{Tab:3}\\\toprule
    \endfirsthead
    \caption* {Table \ref{Tab:3} (Continued): Construction of regulatory variables for survey III (2007)}\\\toprule


    \textbf{Variables} & \textbf{Range} &   \textbf{Quantification} & \textbf{\makecell[c]{Questions}}\\
    \hline
    \endhead % all the lines above this will be repeated on every page


    \textbf{Variables} & \textbf{Range} &   \textbf{Quantification} & \textbf{\makecell[c]{Questions}}\\
    \hline
    \textbf{Barriers to entry }\\

    \makecell{Initial capital \\ index} & 1-5   &\makecell[l]{For (1): answer between 0 and 1 \\ For (2)-(3): yes=1, no=0\\For (4)-(5): yes=0, no=1}    &(1) Minimum capital entry requirement\footnote{Minimum capital entry requirement is given in local currency. Thus, we converted all these data in millions of dollars. We assigned 1 to the highest minimum capital entry requirement to have values between 0 and 1. The final index may vary since the exchange rate is not the same for the whole period.}; (2) Is it legally required that applicants submit information on the source of funds to be used as capital?; (3) Are the sources of funds to be used as capital verified by the regulatory/supervisory authorities?; (4) Can the initial disbursement or subsequent injections of capital be done with assets other than cash or government securities?; (5) Can initial disbursement of capital be done with borrowed funds?\\

Я думаю, самое простое решение — не использовать никаких \makecellдиректив.
