- D. The requirement matters only if the buyer uses lender financing.
Correct Answer
B. Recognize commission agreements and broker-level compensation concepts.

The other options rely on unsafe assumptions about custom, oral agreement, escrow, client preference, or independent salesperson authority and do not reflect sound Florida exam practice.
