one question from Archiprep

Anyone knows why the answer is A and C? Why is not the answer A and B. 

Per B295, term 9.3.3(2nd screenshot), "budget control" is under contractor's primary responsibility.

I know in the IDP, owner and contractor take part in design too and I know the question is asking "primary responsibility". I still think architect's design responsibility is more than budget monitoring task. Therefore, I think B is better than C.

Please let me know. Thanks.

  Programming is a Supplemental Service. See B101, Article 4. So it's not a "primary service". 

  Also, the word "responsibility" in the question hints at "monitoring" and "quality control". The one who wrote this question, I think, used the word "design" as a red herring. I also use the Archiprep platform to run through the questions, just for fun. I wouldn't rely on Archiprep for serious preparation, however. I turn to Brightwood, Ballast and AHPP for that. Good luck! My exam is next week.
