Why the answer is B, and why the others tempt you.
The four factors of production are land, labour, capital, and entrepreneurship. Money in a savings account is a financial asset, not a real productive resource — it is not itself used to produce goods and services. A tractor is physical capital, a skilled engineer is labour, and a plot of land is the factor 'land'.
