Answer to Question 1

B
Zero-based budgeting is a process used to drill down into costs associated by detailing every supply
item and quantity of times it is typically used. Accounting is an activity that managers engage in to
record and report financial transactions and data. An operating budget accounts for the income and
expenses associated with the day-to-day activities within a department or organization. A capital
budget accounts for the purchase of major new or replacement equipment.

Answer to Question 2

A
Delegation of nursing tasks consists of knowledge, skill, behavior, experience, and training. Some ways in which nurses learn how to effectively delegate are: 1) discussion of knowledge and skills related to delegation; 2) clinical mentorship; and 3) practice of responsibilities related to delegation. While intuition may be helpful for nurses in certain situations, it is not considered a key or primary means by which nurses learn how to effectively delegate nursing tasks.
