Correct Answer

A. Commission $60; certificate of official character $1; authentication $3; acknowledgment $2 per person.

Detailed Explanation

Several fee statutes are tested together here. Executive Law §§131, 132, 133, and 136 set the commission fee at $60, a certificate of official character at $1, an authentication certificate at $3, and an acknowledgment at $2 for each person. Unlike the written exam fee of $15 in the exam notice, the commission fee is not the same as the test fee.
