The use of resources in the foundation stage of family life cycle is influenced by :

  • A.Values
  • B.Standards
  • C.Short-term goals
  • D.Long-term goals

Answer: D

The keyed answer is long-term goals (option D).

The foundation (beginning) stage is the start of family life, when the couple sets up a home, adjusts to each other and plans for children, savings and housing. Use of resources at this stage is directed mainly by what the family hopes to achieve over the years ahead, which is why long-term goals are named.

Values and standards guide resource use throughout the life cycle and are not tied to this stage in particular. Short-term goals matter day to day but do not set the direction of a young family's resource use. I could not find a home management text that states the link to long-term goals in these words, so this follows the key and the usual description of the stage.
