Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
The 75% revenue threshold test requires that the total external revenue reported by operating segments should collectively account for at least 75% of the company's total revenue. In scenarios I and III, the total operating segments' revenue does not meet this threshold when compared to Bromwell Ltd's total revenue, indicating the need to identify additional reportable segments.
