Answer to Question 1

ANS: B
These statements are usually generalized around the direction and purpose of the organization. Mission, vision, and value statements do not address specific areas listed in the other options.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: A
The strategic plan of an organization must comply with the mission statement. The other factors are incorrect because although they may influence the overall plan, the plan can never stray from the mission statement.
