    Why have you headed up your post ‘target costing’? This question has nothing to do with target costing – is is a question on decision making under uncertainty.

    The correct answer is D. I explain the reason in my free lectures on risk and uncertainty. (My lectures are a complete free course for Paper PM and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.)

    I assume that you found this question in your Revision Kit because the original exam question was in the old exam format and did not have any multiple choice question in it 🙂
