Haha, maybe the business analyst should just flip a coin. That would be about as useful as some of these options!

Option A seems like the easy way out. We've got to do our due diligence here. I'd go with option D to make sure we're not missing anything important.

I'm not so sure about that. I'd lean more towards option D - the cumulative net benefits need to be reviewed before we can move forward. Rushing into this without a complete financial analysis could be risky.

Hmm, I think option C makes the most sense. Positive benefits starting in the second year is a pretty good sign, and the team seems confident in their recommendation.
