I'm going with C) 12. It's the most logical answer, unless the company has a 'Budget Leap Year' or something.

Actually, I'm sticking with C) 12. The ILF contains data for 12 monthly budget amount fields and the monthly name field, so that's 12 DETs.

I think it's D) 13 because there's also the ILF itself that needs to be counted as a DET.

I agree, C) 12 makes the most sense. Each monthly budget amount field and the monthly name field would count as a DET.

D) 13? Seriously? That's a lot of data elements. Are we sure the company doesn't have a thirteenth month or something?

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. Counting the fields seems straightforward, but I'll go with B) 2 just to be different.
