I believe the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The compound subject in the sentence above would be Budd Abbott and Lou Coastelle. When a sentence has two or more subjects, that's called a “compound subject.”  Hope this answers the question.

Answer:

B. Budd Abbott and Lou Coastelle

Explanation:

The subject of  a sentence is the person, thing or idea that does something and a compound subject refers to a subject that has two or more simple subjects that are joined by a conjunction.

In this sentence and considering the definitions above, the subject is Budd Abbott and Lou Coastelle and it is a compound subject because it has two simple subjects and it is joined by the word "and" that is a conjunction.
