b. investors use the accounting information for planning, controlling and organizing the business

Explanation:

Investors are individuals or firms that commit their money to a business as capital with profits expectations. Investors are usually not part of business management. Their main contribution is the money they provide to finance the business operations.  Investors, therefore, do not manage, plan, control, or organize the business.

Investors are also users of accounting information. They are classified as external users. To investors, accounting information communicates how the management is using their funds and the expected business performance in terms of profitability and growth.
