Explanation

Losses appearing in the financial report for a completed project indicate that the project was never formally closed. Without a formal project sign-off, the project's financial accounts remain open, allowing costs to continue being charged to it - which would explain the ongoing losses. Completing the project sign-off (formal closure) finalizes all project accounts, stops further charges, and officially closes the project in the financial system. Removing access (A), releasing resources (C), and documenting lessons learned (D) are also closure activities, but they are dependent on or follow the formal sign-off, making B the most immediate and corrective next step.
