Corporate finance committees do not plan the detailed activities of the various divisions in a large firm, but by their allocation of investment funds they make strategic judgements as to where the firm should expand.

a) by their allocation of investment funds they make strategic judgements as to where the firm should expand
b) when they allocate investment funds, they make strategic judgements about where the firm might be expanding
c) they make strategic judgements on where the firm should expand when they allocate investment funds
d) by allocating investment funds, they will make strategic judgements about where the firm might be expanding
e) allocations of investments fund as to where the firm should expand are their exercise in strategic judgement

I go with C. The second part of the sentence should express a contrast to 'make detailed decisions' and 'they make stragegic...' seems just right.

Just looking for the justification of OA.

initially i also choose c
but now let me try and justify OA

"but they make" is needed to be paralle to "do not plan"
so we can kick out D and E


B can be removed as "where the firm might be expanding " is wrong, alters intent
decision are made to make firm expand
and not where firm is expanding

One small questions

they make "trategic judgement" when they allocate funds
or
they make judgements by allocating funds


they make "trategic judgement" when they allocate funds
means
they make judgements when they were allocating the funds
and after that nothing else

Yes, i think this makes C a wrong option.

C is grammatically correct but does alter the meaning of the sentence. Is 'A' also grammatically correct? The sentence construction is all too awkward for me. I would've picked 'C'.

I received a PM asking me to respond. I'm not a fan of this question. What's the source?

Can't be C b/c of the (incorrect) idiom "make judgments ON"
"judgments about" and "judgments as to" (in the other options) are both fine.

B and D change the meaning with "might be expanding" - that indicates that something is happening independent of the committee, but the original point was that the committee has an opinion about where the company should (in the committee's opinion) expand.

E is all out of order. E says "allocations as to (something)" - but the "as to" goes with "judgments." Instead, we'd want to say something like "allocations based on (something)."

That leaves us with A by default. But I really don't think this is a well-written question overall.
Please note: I do not use the Private Messaging system! I will not see any PMs that you send to me!!
