D is just silly. Operational budgets focus on the numbers, not the threats. Although I do worry about the threats facing Satilla's health plan. *laughs*

C is definitely wrong. Operational budgets usually cover a 12-month period, not 3-5 years. That's more for a strategic plan.

I'm not sure about that. Wouldn't the key information source be Satilla's internal data, not its external environment?
