Correct Answer: Maximizing profits


Solution : The correct answer is (a) Maximizing profits

Maximizing profits is a primary objective of management, especially in the context of for-profit organizations. Management aims to optimize the financial performance of the organization by increasing revenues, controlling costs, and improving efficiency. Maximizing profits enables the organization to generate resources for growth, investment, and sustainability. While other objectives, such as minimizing costs, ensuring employee satisfaction, and achieving work-life balance, are also important considerations for management, maximizing profits is a fundamental objective that ensures the organization's long-term viability and success.
