B) All departmental account statements or payroll notices are generated through accounting and finance.

C) The CFO, his assistant, or the VP of accounting is authorized to sign company checks.

D) Payroll and benefits are handled by our accounting and finance department.

Explanation:

Sentence B has a compound subject in which the nouns are connected by or. Both nouns that are most important - statements and notices - are plural, so the plural verb is correctly employed.

Sentence C also has a compound subject connected by or. This time, we have three parts to this subject, all of them being singular - CFO, assistant, and VP. Therefore, the singular verb is correctly employed.

Sentence D has a compound subject as well but, this time, it is connected by and instead of or. Therefore, even if one or both nouns are singular - in this case the first one, payroll, is - the verb should still be conjugated in the plural form. Letter D is correct.

Letter A is incorrect because we have two singular nouns - director and manager - connected by or. In this case, the verb should also be singular.

And letter E is also incorrect because we have two nouns connected by and. In this case, the verb should be plural, not singular.
