I bet the developers at Salesforce are sitting around high-fiving each other over this automagic report type creation. 'We're so clever!' *laughs*

Hmm, I would have thought it would create a report type for the Box object since that's the new one. But I guess Salesforce knows what it's doing.

I wonder if the report type would be different if the lookup field was added to the Box object instead of the Account object. Hmm, something to ponder.

Yes, you're correct. Salesforce creates the report type based on the perspective of the parent object, so adding the lookup field to the Box object would show Boxes with associated Accounts in the report.

That's an interesting point. I think the report type would show Boxes with associated Accounts if the lookup field was added to the Box object.

D) Accounts with Boxes is the correct answer. The report type is automatically created from the perspective of the parent object, which is Accounts in this case.
