Answer (C) is correct . In investment centers, managers are responsible for all activities, including costs, revenues, and investments. An investment center is a profit center with significant control over the amount of capital invested.

A cost center, for example, a production department, is responsible for costs only. A profit center, for example, the appliance department in a retail store, is responsible for both revenues and expenses.
