Agree with the confusion. "Revenues" seems equivalent to "profits" in this case since only B stands out as a possible answer. If B is not right, I would rather disqualify all answer as contenders because D goes a too long way assuming that ticket sales is the ONLY source of revenue (often times, museums receive mucho in donations and they may derive other income from endowment funds :)).

Good point on GMAT and Revenue. Id go with B on this one. No matter how many visitors come in 1 or a million, revenue still only goes up 20%, Has to be a decrese in something else.

yes D is right
D: which is the only logical link for revenue increase as more
visitors visited the museum. B is wrong because Expenses reduced implies profits increase which is not stated in the Stimulus.

There is a suttle difference between B and D.

Since the Museum is already facing difficulties it probably cut down its expenses as much as possible. Hence there is no room to reduce the expenses further. This will rule out B vs D.
