Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A performance audit is used to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of an organization's procedures and methods in order to improve performance. It focuses on key performance indicators and management practices, rather than compliance or financial statements. Therefore, option C is the best choice. Options A, B, and D are not appropriate because they do not specifically evaluate performance in the manufacturing department.
