An office is the "Brain" of a business. In an office, figures (数字), lists and information are collected and arranged to tell the managers or heads of the business what has happened and what is happening in their shops or factories.
Information comes into an office in all sorts of ways, but the main items of information come in regularly. It is part of the job of the clerks to collect, sort out and classify that information and to put it into such a form that it is easily interpreted (说明) and understood. Offices not only collect information but also classify it.
This work of collection is common in an office from the sorting of mail every morning to the accountant’s (会计) work in finding out the final figure for the year’s profit. Classification always requires the arrangement of the same kind of information in lists or columns. For this work, as in all office work, correctness, accuracy and speed are necessary. These are the essentials of classifying.
There is no value, however, in collecting figures which mean nothing. Figures are guides which should help managers make decisions. The interpretation of figures should tell where success or failure lies, where profit comes and where losses occur. On the basis of this information, a choice is made and a series of such choices may make a policy.
A firm which has three factories may find, for instance, from its figures, that one factory is losing money. Then the firm is faced with these choices: a change of manager, a cut in production, an increase in production, or closure (关闭) of the factory. Whichever one of these decisions is taken becomes the policy. A policy means a plan of action. It is clear that a decision leading to a policy can only be as good as the information on which it is based.
Consequently there is a constant search for more and more exact information on the part of the management, which wants to have all the necessary facts before it can make the best decision.
What is the function of figures in a business according to the passage?
选项
A、They provide guides for the managers.
B、They are policy choices for the managers.
C、They lead to the increase in production.
D、They determine the profits of a business.
