C Correct answer
Explanation

Zero Based Budgeting (ZBB) is the process where every item of expenditure is re-evaluated from scratch (zero base) each financial year. Unlike traditional budgeting that adjusts previous allocations, ZBB requires managers to justify all expenditures as if starting anew, ensuring resources are allocated efficiently based on current priorities rather than historical patterns.
