Solution

(a) Limitations of planning-
(1) Planning Creates Rigidity:
Although the quality of flexibility is inherent in planning, meaning thereby that in case of need changes can be brought in, but it must be admitted that only small changes are possible.
(2) Planning Involves Huge Costs:
Planning is a small work but its process is really big. Planning becomes meaningful only after traversing a long path. It takes a lot of time to cover this path.
During this entire period, the managers remain busy in collecting a lot of information and analyzing it. In this way, when so many people remain busy in the same activity, the organization is bound to face huge costs.

(b) Value of equality.
proper division of work among its employees.
