Correct arrangement

  • acquisitions: Microsoft 365 E5
  • customer service: Microsoft 365 F1
  • finance: Microsoft 365 E5
  • purchasing: Microsoft 365 E3

Explanation

Microsoft 365 E5 is assigned to Acquisitions and Finance because these departments typically require advanced compliance, eDiscovery, advanced analytics, and security features (such as advanced threat protection and Power BI) that are exclusive to E5. Customer Service workers are Firstline/Frontline workers who only need basic communication tools without full desktop Office apps, making Microsoft 365 F1 the most cost-effective fit. Purchasing requires standard productivity tools like full Office desktop apps and core collaboration features, which are covered by Microsoft 365 E3 without the need for premium E5 add-ons.
