This differs from traditional incremental budgeting, in which the previous year&#8217;s budget is used as a starting point for the current year&#8217;s budget.<\/p>\n<p>ZBB can be used by the Sikkim government to ensure that all expenditures are justified and that the budget is aligned with the government&#8217;s priorities. It can also help to identify areas where spending can be reduced.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Option a) is incorrect because ZBB does not eliminate all previous budget allocations. Instead, it requires that all expenditures be justified for each new budget period.<\/li>\n<li>Option b) is the correct answer because ZBB requires that all expenditures be justified for each new budget period. This means that the budgeting process starts from scratch each year.<\/li>\n<li>Option c) is incorrect because ZBB does not require that each expenditure be justified based on current needs.
