Answer:
D. The marginal cost of light is zero, and by convention zero-priced goods and services are excluded from GDP
Explanation:
Only things that have a monetary cost are included in GDP. Things that do not cost "anything" in monetary terms are not included, and this is a major shortcoming of GDP.
From an ecological economics standpoint, things like sunlight, air, and water are often not valued and included in GDP. This is the same case as in the question, because the marginal cost of light is zero, then, it is not included in GDP.

A) The GAAP statement is based on cost function rather than cost behavior.
Explanation:
Income statements that follow GAAP rules categorizes expenses based on their business function: product, selling or administrative.
While cost behavior categorizes costs based on how they influence a company's activities: variable, fixed and mixed. When a manager wants to measure the impact of any decision he/she makes, they need to use this type of categorization. For example, if fixed costs increase, what is the new break even point? If variable costs decrease, how is the marginal cost affected?

Matrix organization structure
Explanation:
A matrix organizational structure is a work arrangement in which employees report to two or more supervisors rather than one line manager overseeing every project aspect. The reporting relationships are grid-like, with employees reporting to both product and functional managers. For example, an employee may have a direct manager they report to, plus one or more project managers they operate under.
The matrix organizational structure is useful when sharing skills across departments is necessary to complete a project.
