This is mainly a question testing the correct usage of idiom

The correct construction of "credit with" is:
credit X with Y
credit with + noun/gerund

Some incorrect constructions of "credit with":
credit in
*credit for
*credit to


The only answer choice using the correct idiom is (B)

*"Credit for" and "Credit to" are correct idioms when used in different contexts.
"Credit for" is correct in cases such as: "give X credit for Y" or "take credit for X"
"Credit to" is correct in cases such as: Dan is a credit to the organisation.
