What type of goal can be accomplished within a certain time or in a quantity that can be calculated?

• A. Balance sheets
• B. Acheivable
• C. Measurable
• D. Desireable

Answer: (C)

Measurable goals are defined by their ability to be quantified, so you can know exactly when the goal is reached and track progress along the way. By setting numeric targets or clear units and a deadline, you can measure how close you are to completing the goal, such as producing a certain number of cabinet parts or finishing a project within a set timeframe. This clarity lets you monitor performance, stay on track, and adjust actions if needed. The other ideas aren’t about quantifying progress: a balance sheet is a financial report, achievable focuses on feasibility, and desirable concerns whether you want the goal, not how to measure it. So the type of goal described as something that can be accomplished within a certain time or in a calculable quantity is measurable.
