Answer:

Sole Purpose Shoe Company

The reason for Sarah to want to use standard costs to compare with her actual costs is:

A) Management can evaluate the differences between standard costs and actual costs to focus on correcting the cost variances.

Explanation:

Standard costs provide a control technique for evaluating the Sole Purpose Shoe Company's performance at three levels: a standard performance level, a measure of actual performance, and a measure of the difference (variance) between standard and actual costs.  Sarah will use the variance resulting from the comparison of standard costs with actual costs to measure the non-financial performance of the entity.
