Answer:

C. Target costing

Step-by-step explanation:

Target costing is one that is derived from competitive market price. Various conditions that determine price include homogeneous products, competition level, switching cost, and market conditions.

Companie's have limited control on market prices, so they engage in proactive costing by using target costing to provide goods at prices consumers are willing to buy, thereby reducing cost.
