Answer: Option (B) is correct.

Explanation:

Cash and carry plan was considered as a policy Franklin Roosevelt carried out at a session of US Congress on 21 September 1939. It at the time replaced Neutrality Acts (1937), under which belligerents could buy nonmilitary goods from the US as long as they pay upfront in cash and also assumed the risk associated with transportation.
