Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Short-termism in management focuses on immediate financial performance, often at the expense of long-term investments. Managers might cut costs, like R&D spending (A), or avoid long-term investments in brand value (D), to boost short-term earnings. They might also maintain critical employees with bonuses tied to short-term earnings (C) or stick with existing technologies to save costs (E). However, stock repurchases (B) are actually a tactic aligned with short-termism, as they can artificially inflate earnings per share and improve short-term financial appearance without necessarily contributing to the company's long-term health.
