NOTE Because formula fields are automatically calculated, they are read-only on record detail pages and do not update last modified date fields. Formula fields are not visible on edit pages. In account formulas, all business account fields are available as merge fields. However, account fields exclusive to person accounts such as Birthdate and Email are not available. https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=sf.customize_formulas.htm&type=5

Formulas do indeed show up on record detail pages. I just tested it. I believe the correct answer is ABCD unless I'm missing something.

A, B, D, IMO. Formula fields will not display on record edit pages. Calculated values are displayed but not in a field so cannot be edited hence fields are not displayed (underlying formulas are visible and editable in setup only).

Because formula fields are automatically calculated, they are read-only on record detail pages and do not update last modified date fields. Formula fields are not visible on edit pages. + You can't search encrypted, formula, or lookup fields or fields hidden by Field Level Security. https://help.salesforce.com/articleView?id=search_fields_cex.htm&type=5

Note Roll-up summary and formula fields are read-only on detail pages and not available on edit pages. They can also be visible to users even though they reference fields that your users can't see.
