Fill in: 'We ___ cloud spend to the teams that generate it.'
We 'attribute spend' — the standard FinOps collocation for tracing cost to its source. 'Assign out', 'charge round' and 'tag up' are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Tagging resources helps us ___ costs accurately across projects.'
We 'allocate costs' — the standard collocation for distributing them by team or project. The other options are informal or non-standard here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ untagged resources so no spend goes unaccounted for.'
We 'flag' untagged resources — the standard collocation for drawing attention to an issue. 'Wave off', 'mark down' and 'note up' don't fit this sense.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'Finance teams ___ chargebacks each month based on usage.'
We 'calculate chargebacks' — the standard collocation for computing cost allocations. The other options are awkward or informal here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'Dashboards ___ spend trends so teams can self-serve on cost visibility.'
We 'surface trends' — the standard collocation for making data visible. 'Raise up', 'lift out' and 'bring up front' are non-standard phrasings.
