Which statement is NOT listed under the FR mission and vision?

• A. Commit ourselves to a management model that controls costs while streamlining production schedules and minimizing retail prices
• B. Provide a pleasant working environment in which our world-class employees can produce innovative results as a team
• C. Become the world's number one casual clothing company
• D. Act as global citizens with ethics and integrity

Answer: (D)

Mission and vision describe what the company aims to achieve and how it will pursue those goals in concrete, strategic terms. The statements about cost-conscious management to keep prices low, a pleasant environment that enables world-class employees to produce innovative results as a team, and becoming the world’s number one casual clothing company all reflect explicit business objectives and the direction the company wants to take.

The line about acting as global citizens with ethics and integrity reads as a values-based stance rather than a specific mission or vision objective. It expresses how the company should behave, which belongs more to a code of ethics or corporate values rather than to the stated mission and vision. That’s why it isn’t listed among FR’s mission and vision.
