Option A is the better answer for the given scenario. It allows you to centralize billing and payment management while providing flexibility to project creators. By creating a billing account and associating a payment method with it, you establish a central source for billing and payment for all projects. Granting project creators permission to associate the billing account with their projects ensures that they can create projects without the need for their individual credit card information. This approach streamlines the process and avoids the hassle of collecting credit card details from each engineer. Additionally, this option allows for easy monitoring and management of project costs through a single billing account, making it simpler to track expenses and allocate resources effectively.

Selected Answer: B

without asking them for their credit card information Option B sounds better since consolidated billing is not asked for. Every project needs its own billing account.

Selected Answer: A

Cloud Billing accounts pay for Google Cloud projects and Google Maps Platform projects. You might be eligible to switch your account type to monthly invoiced billing if your business meets certain requirements. These requirements include, but aren't limited to the following: - You must be registered as a business for a minimum of one year. - You expect to spend a minimum of $40,000 a year on Google Cloud. - Invoiced billing must be available in your country. https://cloud.google.com/billing/docs/how-to/invoiced-billing So A is the correct answer here.
