Answer: B) Convenience Sample

Step-by-step explanation:

A convenience sample is used when pilot testing is to be done. In this case, the accounting professor wishes to know who would take a elective. Since this involves taking sample from part of population that is near at hand and can be easily taken. So it is a convenience sample.
