I bet the person who wrote this question is a marketing genius. Or maybe just a marketing major with a twisted sense of humor.

Marketing is the obvious choice here. They're the ones who call the shots when it comes to the product and the target audience.

Hmm, I'm torn between Marketing and Manufacturing. But I guess Marketing has the final say on what we produce and who we sell to.

I was thinking Finance, but after thinking about it, Marketing makes the most sense. They're the ones who know the market best.

The answer has to be Marketing, it's the department that decides what products to sell and who to sell them to.
