[All AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional SAP-C02 Questions]

A company wants to change its internal cloud billing strategy for each of its business units. Currently, the cloud governance team shares reports for overall cloud spending with the head of each business unit. The company uses AWS Organizations to manage the separate AWS accounts for each business unit. The existing tagging standard in Organizations includes the application, environment, and owner. The cloud governance team wants a centralized solution so each business unit receives monthly reports on its cloud spending. The solution should also send notifications for any cloud spending that exceeds a set threshold.

Which solution is the MOST cost-effective way to meet these requirements?

A. Configure AWS Budgets in each account and configure budget alerts that are grouped by application, environment, and owner. Add each business unit to an Amazon SNS topic for each alert. Use Cost Explorer in each account to create monthly reports for each business unit.
B. Configure AWS Budgets in the organization's management account and configure budget alerts that are grouped by application, environment, and owner. Add each business unit to an Amazon SNS topic for each alert. Use Cost Explorer in the organization's management account to create monthly reports for each business unit.
C. Configure AWS Budgets in each account and configure budget alerts that are grouped by application, environment, and owner. Add each business unit to an Amazon SNS topic for each alert. Use the AWS Billing and Cost Management dashboard in each account to create monthly reports for each business unit.
D. Enable AWS Cost and Usage Reports in the organization's management account and configure reports grouped by application, environment. and owner. Create an AWS Lambda function that processes AWS Cost and Usage Reports, sends budget alerts, and sends monthly reports to each business unit's email list.

B. Configure AWS Budgets in the organization's management account and configure budget alerts that are grouped by application, environment, and owner. Add each business unit to an Amazon SNS topic for each alert. Use Cost Explorer in the organization's management account to create monthly reports for each business unit. This option is the most cost-effective because it utilizes the organization's management account to set budgets and configure alerts for all accounts in the organization, rather than having to configure budgets and alerts individually in each account. Additionally, using Cost Explorer in the management account allows the cloud governance team to view the consolidated spending for all accounts in the organization and create reports for each business unit. This eliminates the need to access each individual account to view costs and create reports.

Option A is not the most cost-effective solution because it requires configuring budgets and reports in multiple accounts, which increases the complexity and cost of managing the cloud spending for each business unit. Option C is not the most cost-effective solution because it requires the cloud governance team to access the AWS Billing and Cost Management dashboard in each account to create monthly reports for each business unit, which increases the complexity and cost of managing the cloud spending for each business unit. Option D is not the most cost-effective solution because it requires creating an AWS Lambda function to process AWS Cost and Usage Reports, which increases the complexity and cost of managing the cloud spending for each business unit.

"configure budget alerts that are grouped by application, environment, and owner" - I just literally tried to create a budget alert and I am not able to see any option for grouping by tags. Another nonsense question
