My Answer- D.
Explanation::
This is a case of conditional sentences with the structure as Follows:: If Condition X, result Y.
--> if "Condition X" is in the present tense then in the result "Y", "WILL / MAY" is highly preferred followed by "MIGHT/COULD".
Example: If you study hard, you will pass the exam
--> if "Condition X" is in the past tense then in the result "Y", "WOULD / COULD" are preferred, depending upon the intended meaning
Examples: If I lived in India, I would visit the temples.
If I won a lottery of $1million, I could buy Bentley.

Other hints to choose the correct answer choice::
-- "Final products' quality" is concise as per GMAT. (But yeah, possessive pronouns in case of non-living things are not preferred in grammar)
