Selected Answer: D
Option D is the most appropriate because it involves keeping the relevant stakeholders informed about the progress and potential impacts on the budget. The project manager should provide updates on the project's status, including the fact that some features planned for the first year will not be ready as initially expected. This allows the financial department to make informed decisions regarding budget allocation and financial planning for the subsequent years of the project.

Option D is the most appropriate choice. When there are changes to the project scope or features that affect the budget allocation for the year, it's important to communicate this information to the financial department. The project manager should provide an update on the project timeline and discuss any adjustments needed in the budget planning.
