Explanation
The most efficient solution is to create a cost allocation tag on the EC2 Auto Scaling group to indicate the business group. This allows you to use AWS Cost Explorer to track and assign EC2 costs based on the tag, which can be done with minimal operational overhead. Once the cost allocation tags are in place, you can easily filter and allocate EC2 costs by business group within Cost Explorer without needing complex configurations or separate resources.
