Attempt all the questions
1. A choose the correct options after reading the following texts carefully. [2×2=4]
A. The Price the government pays for standard weapons purchased from military constructions is determined
by a pricing method called "historical costing." Historical costing allows contractor to protect their profit
by adding a percentage increase, based on the current rate of inflation, to the previous year's contractual
price.
Which of the following statement, if true, is the base for criticism of historical costing as an economically
sound pricing method for military contracts?
A) The government might continue to pay for past inefficient use of funds.
B) The rate of inflation has varied considerably over the past twenty years.
C) The contractual price will be greatly affected by the cost of material use for the product
D) Many taxpayers question the amount of money the government spends on military contracts.
E) The pricing method based on historical costing might not encourage the development of innovative
weapons.
