here is the grey part of Comptia. if MFA goes to second person can be a good answer but A makes more sense in this scenario

I think A is better answer than B. With MFA, the employee will still be able to perform authorized transactions. Role separation would have been the BEST answer if it was included on the list, but for this, mandatory vacations can work. This is because the employee who substitutes the other may possibly identify the changes on time.

How does vacations have to do with preventing an employee from syphoning money from the company. That makes no sense!

Mandatory Vacations, Job Rotation and Separation Duties are all three Managerial controls that are part of cert scope. Mandatory vacation will reveal the difference in the way money flows because he/she wouldnt be able to keep doing that while off work.
