Explanation

Option C is correct because an IT Economics Study is specifically designed to evaluate three core pillars: business value (ROI, strategic alignment), technical requirements (architecture, feasibility), and cost (TCO, investment analysis) - this three-pronged framework is the defining scope of such studies.

Why the distractors are wrong:

  • A is incorrect because IT Economics Studies are typically offered at no charge to the customer - cost to the client is not a variable based on scope.
  • B is incorrect because the IT Economics Practice is a global capability, not limited to North America.
  • D is incomplete/incorrect as written (the sentence is cut off), and the described deliverables don't accurately represent what an IT Economics Study produces regardless of engagement size.

Memory tip: Think of "IT Economics" as a BTC study - Business value, Technical requirements, Cost. That acronym maps directly to option C and covers all three pillars you need to recall.
