Not sure about D. Does internal review really add that much value?

Surprised that some think penalties aren't a big deal. They can be huge!

I think option B is the least plausible. Not all companies follow those standards.

I think option D is likely true because internal audits can definitely add value, but I wonder if that's the main reason for their involvement.

Option C makes sense since penalties for misstated financials can be serious, but I'm not sure if it's the least plausible.

I'm a bit unsure about option B; I thought the Standards were more about annual audits rather than quarterly ones.

I remember discussing how management's reputation is crucial, so option A seems plausible to me.

I think using labels is the way to go here. It's a flexible way to group resources based on common policies.

I'm feeling a bit lost on this one. There are a lot of details to keep track of when it comes to safety critical systems. I'll need to take my time and really think through each statement carefully.
