This question seems straightforward, but I want to make sure I understand the key concern with using off-the-shelf SPC software. I'll need to carefully consider each option.

Okay, let me see here. The question is asking about the price charged between divisions, so I'm guessing it's either A, B, or C. I'll eliminate the ones that don't sound right and go with my best guess.
