AWS Budgets can be used to:
A. prevent a given user from creating a resource
B. send an alert when the utilization of Reserved Instances drops below a certain percentage
C. set resource limits in AWS accounts to prevent overspending
D. split an AWS bill across multiple forms of payment

C is wrong because

AWS Budgets is a cost management tool that allows users to set spending limits and receive alerts when costs or usage exceed predefined thresholds. It helps with:

Monitoring AWS costs & usage
Tracking Reserved Instance (RI) and Savings Plan utilization
Sending notifications via email or SNS when thresholds are breached
Why not the other options?
A. Prevent a given user from creating a resource ❌

AWS Budgets cannot prevent resource creation. Instead, AWS IAM policies and Service Control Policies (SCPs) are used to restrict users from provisioning resources.
C. Set resource limits in AWS accounts to prevent overspending ❌

AWS Budgets only alerts users when spending exceeds limits; it does not enforce hard limits. To prevent over-provisioning, AWS Service Quotas or SCPs should be used.
D. Split an AWS bill across multiple forms of payment ❌

AWS bills can only be paid with a single payment method per account. AWS Budgets does not handle payment splitting.
Thus, the correct answer is:
✅ B. Send an alert when the utilization of Reserved Instances drops below a certain percentage

and you didn't really correct any answers as far I as can see from the comments on other tests.

although I am really grateful for this but providing wrong ans will impact the prep

47 - A option is not selectable and

A company has multiple AWS accounts within AWS Organizations and wants to apply the Amazon EC2 Reserved Instances benefit to a single account only.
Which action should be taken?
A. Purchase the Reserved Instances from master payer account and turn off Reserved Instance sharing.
B. Enable billing alerts in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console.
C. Purchase the Reserved Instances in individual linked accounts and turn off Reserved Instance sharing from the payer level.
D. Enable Reserved Instance sharing in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console.

A is wrong because

AWS Organizations allows accounts to share Reserved Instances (RIs) by default. However, if a company wants the RI benefit to apply only to a single account, it must:

1️⃣ Purchase Reserved Instances in the specific account that requires the discount.
2️⃣ Turn off Reserved Instance sharing at the payer (management) account level.

Why not the other options?
A. Purchase the Reserved Instances from the master payer account and turn off Reserved Instance sharing. ❌

Incorrect because RIs cannot be purchased from the payer (management) account—they must be purchased from an individual linked account.
B. Enable billing alerts in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. ❌

Billing alerts only notify users about costs but do not control RI application.
D. Enable Reserved Instance sharing in the AWS Billing and Cost Management console. ❌

Enabling RI sharing would allow all linked accounts to use the RI discount, which is opposite of the requirement.
Final Answer:
✅ C. Purchase the Reserved Instances in individual linked accounts and turn off Reserved Instance sharing from the payer level.
