You need to ensure that your query executes in the minimum possible time. Which query should you use?

A.    SELECT COUNT(*) AS
NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmount
FROM (SELECT SalesOrderId, SalesAmountFROM
DomesticSalesOrders
UNION ALL SELECT
SalesOrderId,
SalesAmountFROM
InternationalSalesOrder s ) AS p
B.    SELECT COUNT(*) AS
NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmount
FROM (SELECT SalesOrderId, SalesAmountFROM
DomesticSalesOrders
UNION SELECT
SalesOrderId,
SalesAmountFROM
InternationalSalesOrder s ) AS p
C.    SELECT COUNT(*) AS
NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmountFROM DomesticSalesOrders
UNION SELECT COUNT(*) AS
NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmountFROM InternationalSalesOrders
D.    SELECT COUNT(*) AS
NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmountFROM DomesticSalesOrders
UNION ALL SELECT COUNT(*) AS NumberOfSales,
SUM(SalesAmount) AS
TotalSalesAmountFROM InternationalSalesOrders
