Answer:

All the options are relevant

Step-by-step explanation:

A mission statement is used by a company to explain, in simple and concise terms, its purpose(s) for being.

A mission statement defines what line of business a company is in, and why it exists or what purpose it serves. Every company should have a precise statement of purpose that gets people excited about what the company does and motivates them to become part of the organization. A mission statement should also define the company’s corporate strategy and is generally a couple of sentences in length.
