A. B. C. D.B
There are different payment options in Azure including pay-as-you-go (PAYG), Enterprise Agreement (EA), and Microsoft Customer Agreement (MCA) accounts.
Your Azure costs are 'per subscription'. You are charged monthly for all resources in a subscription. Therefore, to use different payment options per department, you will need to create a separate subscription per department. You can create multiple subscriptions in a single Azure Active Directory tenant.
Incorrect Answers:
A: A reservation is where you commit to a resource (for example a virtual machine) for one or three years. This gives you a discounted price on the resource for the reservation period. Reservations do not provide a way to use different payment options per department.
C: A resource group is a logical container for Azure resources. You can view the total cost of all the resources in a resource group. However, resource groups do not provide a way to use different payment options per department.
D: A container instance is an Azure resource used to run an application. Container instances do not provide a way to use different payment options per department.

Explanation:
Azure subscriptions are used to manage and organize resources in Azure. Subscriptions are used to control costs, access, and resource availability for each department. You can have multiple subscriptions in a single Azure account, and each subscription can have different billing information, payment methods, and spending limits. This means that each department can have its own subscription with its own payment option to consume Azure services.
Reservations are used to pre-pay for Azure resources such as virtual machines and databases, but they do not provide different payment options for different departments. Resource groups are used to organize and manage resources within a subscription, but they do not provide different payment options. Container instances are used to run Docker containers in Azure, but they do not provide different payment options for different departments.
