Answer 1

B). The entity has begun implementation of the restructuring.

Step-by-step explanation:

Restructuring refers to the widely known corporate management program that includes the reconstruction or reorganizing the structures of a company that could be associated with legal, operational or any other structure related to it to make it more lucrative, profitable, organized and productive. This may be introduced to alter ownership rights or as a consequence of the incurrence of losses or buyout. The company has to meet certain criterions to ensure the provision of this program like the cost, plan, etc. Thus, among the given options the criterion that would not be a criterion to this program, is as described in option B as it exemplifies a later stage.
