Im not sure if all metrics could provide quantitative measurement of IT initiatives. In my opinion "are expressed in terms of how IT risk impacts the achievement of business goals" is the right answer.

the most important consideration when developing metrics to measure the contribution of IT to the achievement of business goals is to provide a quantitative measurement of IT initiatives in relation to business targets.

Option C, expressing metrics in terms of how IT risk impacts the achievement of business goals, is important, but it is not the MOST important consideration. Measuring IT risk and its impact on business goals is vital, but it is just one aspect of developing metrics to measure the contribution of IT to business goals.
