I believe option A is also unlikely, as it involves sales demand which is not typically handled by accounting and finance.

I agree with Lorrie, planning recruitment and training is more related to HR.

I think A and B are the correct answers. The finance person would definitely be calculating the sales forecast and expected costs. C and D seem more like HR and strategy work.

The answer is clearly C and D. The accounting and finance rep shouldn't be involved in staffing and pricing decisions. That's more of a marketing and operations role.
