Why each option
The Project Charter formally authorizes a project and provides the project manager with the authority to apply organizational resources to project activities, typically including high-level information like the problem statement.
Communication activities are detailed in the Communications Management Plan, which is a subsidiary plan developed after the charter.
A Project Charter includes a high-level description of the project, often starting with the business need or problem statement that the project is intended to address, establishing its purpose. This document provides an overview and context for why the project is being initiated.
The cost baseline is part of the Cost Management Plan, a detailed plan developed during the planning phase, not a high-level element of the charter.
An activity plan, or schedule, contains detailed tasks and timelines, which are developed later during the planning process, not in the high-level Project Charter.
