No, it is OpEx (Operational Expenditures).
OpEx: The business can achieve ROI immediately in many cases because the infrastructure is managed by the cloud provider.
CapEx: ROI is not usually realized until a long time after the purchase was made because the infrastructure needs to be set up and employees need to be trained.
Computers, servers, and other hardware needed for on-premises data centers are all examples of CapEx.
Box 3: Yes –
Operational Expenditures (OpEx) are the ongoing costs related to day-to-day operations. A subscription fee for cloud services is considered OpExג€”the cloud provider is making the infrastructure investment upfront, and you only pay for the resources you need as you need them.

You can remove the spending limit, but you can’t increase or decrease it.
The spending limit in Azure prevents spending over your credit amount. All new customers who sign up for an Azure free account or subscription types that include credits over multiple months have the spending limit turned on by default. The spending limit is equal to the amount of credit and it can’t be changed. For example, if you signed up for Azure free account, your spending limit is $200 and you can’t change it to $500. However, you can remove the spending limit. So, you either have no limit, or you have a limit equal to the amount of credit.

NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Hot Area:

Box 1: Yes –
A reservation is where you commit to pay for a resource (for example a virtual machine) for one or three years. This gives you a discounted price on the resource for the reservation period.
Box 2: No –
There are other factors that influence the cost of a virtual machine such as the virtual hard disks attached to the virtual machine. You could have multiple virtual machines with the same ‘size’ (B2S in this case) but with different virtual hard disk configurations.
Box 3: Yes –
When a virtual machine is stopped (deallocated), the virtual machine is unloaded/dismounted from the physical server in Azure. In this state, you are not charged for the virtual machine itself. However, you are still charged for the storage costs of the virtual hard disks attached to the virtual machine.
If the virtual machine is stopped but not deallocated (this happens if you shut down the virtual machine from the operating system of the virtual machine), the virtual machine is still mounted on the physical server in Azure and you are charged for the virtual machine itself as well as the storage costs. To ensure that a virtual machine is ‘stopped (deallocated)’, you need to stop the virtual machine in the Azure portal.
