Answer: A, C

Explanation:

vRealize Operations provides two types of pricing cards, cost-based and rate-based, to calculate the price associated with your virtual infrastructure. You can assign pricing cards to vCenters or Clusters, depending on the pricing strategy determined by vRealize Operations administrator. The pricing cards help you to set the price for each resource present in your virtual environment. You can customize the pricing card as per your requirement.

Cost-based pricing card: A cost-based pricing card calculates the price based on the cost of the resources defined in vRealize Operations. You can specify a multiplication factor for each resource type, such as CPU, memory, storage, etc., to adjust the price according to your business needs.

The price equation using cost is: <cost> x <multiplication factor> = Price

Rate-based pricing card: A rate-based pricing card calculates the price based on the rate of the resources defined by you. You can specify a rate for each resource type, such as CPU, memory, storage, etc., in terms of units, such as MHz, GB, etc. You can also specify the charging period and the power state for each resource type. The price equation using rate is: <rate> x <usage> = Price References: Pricing Overview; Add New Pricing Card
