The correct answer is A. Link the acquired company's projects to your company's billing account.

Here's why:

• Direct Billing Linkage: The most straightforward way to consolidate costs onto a single invoice is to directly link the projects from the acquired company's organization to your existing billing account. This immediately starts charging the projects to your billing account, fulfilling the requirement of consolidating costs "as of tomorrow."

• Why other options are less suitable:

  • B. Exporting to BigQuery: While exporting billing data to BigQuery is useful for cost analysis and reporting, it doesn't consolidate billing onto a single invoice. You'd still have separate invoices initially. BigQuery is a tool for analysis of billing data, not consolidation for invoicing.

  • C. Migrating Projects: Migrating projects is a complex and time-consuming process. It's not necessary for billing consolidation and is unlikely to be completed "as of tomorrow." While it ultimately achieves the desired outcome, it's overkill and too slow for the stated goal.

  • D. New Organization and Billing Account: Creating a new organization and billing account is also a complex and time-consuming process. It's unnecessary and introduces more administrative overhead than simply linking the projects. Again, far too much effort for the simple requirement of consolidated billing.

Therefore, linking the acquired company's projects to your existing billing account is the quickest, easiest, and most direct solution to consolidate costs onto a single invoice "as of tomorrow."
