Definitely not A, depreciation isn't a variable cost.

Wait, electricity is a variable cost? That seems off.

I’m confused about the electricity cost; I thought it was variable, but I guess it can depend on usage.

I practiced a similar question where maintenance was a fixed cost, so I’m leaning towards option C for this one.

I'm a bit unsure about the variable costs; I thought selling expenses could be fixed too, depending on the situation.

I remember that fixed costs don't change with the level of activity, so I think depreciation on equipment might be a fixed cost.

I think the answer is A. Specifying the protocol to match HTTP or HTTPS seems like the most straightforward way to configure the URL object for HTTPS traffic.

Okay, I've got this. The key here is that they want a simple segmentation strategy, so I'm going to go with option B - using a list model and groups in a Single Send Journey. That seems like the most straightforward approach.
