B Correct answer
Explanation

COBOL programs are organized into four mandatory divisions: IDENTIFICATION DIVISION (program identification), ENVIRONMENT DIVISION (computer configuration), DATA DIVISION (data descriptions), and PROCEDURE DIVISION (executable logic). FILE DIVISION does not exist - file-related descriptions are part of the DATA DIVISION (specifically in the FILE SECTION within it).
