Correct answer is A . There are 2 Solutions here : both are correct 1- Place Each department resources in a separate RG . Assign tags to each resource. 2- Place all resources in the same RG. Assign tags to each resource. The key point is "Assign tags to each resource" , as tags are not inherited which means if you assign a tag to a RG >> it will not propagated/inherited to the underneath resources , so you MUST assign tags to each individual resource.

Exactly Bolbol. Therefore by creating 4 different RGs then you can guarantee a more accurate costing per department. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/costs/quick-acm-cost-analysis

Azure Cost Management doesn't support resource group tags. From your link above: "Most Azure resources support tagging. However, some tags aren't available in Cost Management and billing. Additionally, resource group tags aren't supported."

Correct Answer: B. Most Azure resources support tagging. However, some tags aren't available in Cost Management and billing. Additionally, resource group tags aren't supported. Support for tags applies to usage reported after the tag was applied to the resource. Tags aren't applied retroactively for cost rollups. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cost-management-billing/costs/quick-acm-cost-analysis

A) Yes... In single RG if Tags are assigned to each resource then you can differentiate. Tag applies to the RG level if single RG for all resources not useful.

No is correct. The questions states about "Several Service Apps". Who has already worked with this, knows that you can't have Service apps for Linux and Windows in the same RG, because of the different Service Apps plans. The best practice is to have them in different RGs.
