I’m confused about the charity aspect; I thought simple trusts couldn’t give to charities at all.

I remember that a simple trust has to distribute all its income, but I'm not sure about the charity part.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I'm not sure if the purchase-order lead time is the time between receiving the order and producing the products, or the time between placing the order and delivery. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I recall that if profits are expected to increase, any deferred tax liability would likely also increase. I feel like B is the answer, but I still want to double-check my notes.

Okay, let me think this through. Life Cycle Management is about managing the lifecycle of artifacts, so the answer is likely related to how those artifacts are moved or transferred between different applications or environments.
