I lean towards option B, but I wonder if there are performance implications I haven't considered. It seems like the simplest approach.

I'm a bit confused about the difference between a Preprocessor and a Postprocessor. I feel like creating a Postprocessor class might be overkill for just summing prices.

I remember practicing a similar question where we had to choose between a calculation step and a postprocessor. I think the calculation step could be the right choice here.
