Match Taylor's techniques with their descriptions. I. Functional foremanship II. Differential piece-rate system III. Standardisation IV. Fatigue study A. Higher wage rate for those who meet or exceed the standard output B. Fixing standards for tools, materials and processes C. Eight specialists supervising a worker, each in one function D. Determining rest intervals to restore the worker's capacity Choose the correct combination.
The correct matching is I-C, II-A, III-B, IV-D. Functional foremanship uses specialist supervisors, differential piece-rate pays more for meeting the standard, standardisation fixes standards for tools and methods, and fatigue study decides rest intervals. The other options mix up at least two pairs.

Explanation
Functional foremanship means specialist supervisors (eight in total) each overseeing one function. Differential piece-rate pays a higher rate to efficient workers. Standardisation fixes standards for tools, materials and methods. Fatigue study fixes rest intervals. Only the first option matches all four.
