I’m leaning towards using a wrapper class, but I recall there being some confusion about whether it actually formats the values correctly for the user's locale.

I practiced a similar question where we had to format currency values, and I feel like the FOR VIEW clause was mentioned as a way to handle that.

I think using the FORMAT() function might be the right choice since it directly handles locale formatting, but I could be wrong.

The FOR VIEW clause in the SOQL query sounds like it could be a good option, but I'm not sure if that's the most effective approach. I'll need to research that a bit more.

Okay, I see what they're getting at now. The key is that the goal is "Increased Vendor Diversity Options", so the right answer has to be the one that supports that. I'm feeling more confident I can get this one right.
