Production and operations management involves three main types of decisions. Which set names them?

ABuying, storing, and shipping the goods produced
BHiring, training, and paying the production workers
CPricing, advertising, and distributing the output
DProduction planning, production control, and improvement
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Production planning, production control, and improvement
1. The three decision types are made at three different stages of operations work. 2. The first is production planning, which settles where, when, and how production will occur. 3. The second is production control, which handles quality, costs, scheduling, and day-to-day running. 4. The third is improving production and operations, which develops more efficient methods. 5. Pricing and advertising belong to marketing, so option C names a different function entirely. _Source: OpenStax Introduction to Business (CC BY 4.0), Ch 10 "Achieving World-Class Operations Management", section 10.1 Production and Operations Management_
