Answer
The correct option is: Use objectives, finance, functions to judge unit contribution, managers impact, and the business objective in Purpose and sections of business planning.
Explanation
This option works because Use objectives, finance, functions to judge unit contribution, managers impact, and the business objective in Purpose and sections of business planning. The case evidence gives ?10,284, 944 units, and 25%, so the answer must explain the commercial effect rather than repeat a definition.
