Answer (A) is correct . A program-results engagement is intended to obtain information about the costs, outputs, benefits, and effects of a program. It attempts to measure the accomplishment and relative success of the undertaking. Because benefits often cannot be quantified in financial terms, a special concern is the ability to measure effectiveness. Thus, clear definitions of objectives and standards should be provided at the outpost of the program. A program is a funded activity not part of the normal, continuing operations of the organization, such as an expansion or a new information system.
Answer (B) is incorrect because A privacy engagement does not attempt to measure anything; it addresses the security of personal information.
Answer (C) is incorrect because A process engagement does not attempt to measure anything. Its focus is on operations and how effectively and efficiently the organizational units affected will cooperate.
Answer (D) is incorrect because A compliance attempts to ensure an organization that it is in compliance with related laws and regulations.
