BeanBarn serves price-sensitive customers while using retained profit; the case evidence includes break-even output of ?5,002, sales of 827 units, and a 15% change in costs or demand. Which option best applies Explain the main business aims and objectives: survival, profit maximisation, domestic and international growth, market share, customer satisfaction, social and ethical objectives and shareholder value?

The correct option is: Use survival, shareholder value, growth, profit maximisation to judge supplier lead time, owners impact, and the business objective in Aims and objectives.

Choose this response because Use survival, shareholder value, growth, profit maximisation to judge supplier lead time, owners impact, and the business objective in Aims and objectives. The case evidence gives ?6,502, 827 units, and 15%, so the answer must explain the commercial effect rather than repeat a definition. The distractors are weaker because they confuse cash flow and profit, miss the owners, or ignore the business objective.
