InstanceName is a reserved tag for AWS. Thus, AWS will not allow this tag

B.
AWS will not allow the tags as the value is the same for different keys

separate keys

D.
AWS will allow both the tags and show properly in the cost distribution report

AWS provides cost allocation tags to categorize and track the AWS costs. When the user applies tags to his
AWS resources, AWS generates a cost allocation report as a comma-separated value (CSV file. with the
usage and costs aggregated by those tags. Each tag will have a key-value and can be applied to services,
such as EC2, S3, RDS, EMR, etc. It is required that the key should be different for each tag. The value can be
the same for different keys. In this case since the value is different, AWS will properly show the distribution
report with the correct values.
