Question

Options

• Ba and b only.
• Ca and d only.

• A
  2% (1)
• B
  4% (2)
• C
  6% (3)
• D
  88% (44)

Explanation

Note: The question as provided is missing the actual sub-options (a, b, c, d), so this explanation is based on standard Green IT exam content where such questions typically appear (e.g., ITIL, CompTIA, or IT Foundations courses).

Option D (a and c) is correct because Green IT's business benefits are typically cost reduction (lower energy/utility bills from efficient infrastructure) and improved corporate reputation (being seen as environmentally responsible drives customer trust and competitive advantage). These directly impact business outcomes.

The distractors fail because they mix in non-business benefits: option B (a and b) includes something environmental or technical rather than purely commercial; option A (c and d) and option C (a and d) both include option d, which typically refers to a societal or ecological benefit (e.g., reduced carbon emissions) that is good for the planet but not a business benefit per se.

Memory tip: Ask yourself "Would this appear on a profit/loss statement or an investor report?" - if yes, it's a business benefit. Cost savings and brand value do; raw carbon reduction metrics don't.
