Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Nonprogrammed decisions are unique and complex decisions that are not routine or repetitive in nature. Such decisions are generally poorly structured, time-consuming, and have far-reaching consequences. Goals for these decisions are often clear and specific, not vague. Also, top management is primarily responsible for making nonprogrammed decisions. Therefore, option D is not a characteristic of nonprogrammed decisions.
