Wait, so the accounting department's costs are too high, but the goals are aligned? Sounds like someone's cooking the books...or maybe just cooking the books for their own personal cookbook!

All of these statements are correct? Well, I guess that means the correct answer is 'All of the Above', which is always the safest bet when you're stumped.

Hah! The accounting department is efficient but not effective? That's like saying the Titanic was a great ship, it just had some minor issues with the whole 'sinking' thing.

I'm going with B. If the goals are mutually supportive, then they must be congruent. Though I do wonder if Ms. Tsai's bonus structure is a bit too generous.

Okay, so Ms. Tsai's goals and Oval's goals are aligned, but the department's costs are too high? Sounds like a classic case of 'penny-wise, pound-foolish' to me.
