d. Human Resources: Yes Buildings and Grounds: No Repairs and Maintenace: No

Explanation:

Human resources is the human capital resource of an organization. It incudes allthe emploeeys of the organization. The number of employees is the suitable basis for cost allocation to human resource because the number of employees drives the cost of this cost centre. For Building and Grounds, and Repairs and Maintenance, number of employees is not a suitable basis because it does not drive the cost of these cost centres.
