    B) Department B performed the best.

    Explanation:

    Investment assets are those that we use to produce additional income, or with which we speculate on future income.

    So, if department B invested less than department A in those assets, and both had the same taxes during the year, department B has better used the assets in its main mode of business and to generate income.
