Quoted from Microsoft PR

 

"Microsoft Studios includes 343 Industries, Turn 10 Studios, and Lionhead Studios just to name a few," he wrote. "These industry-leading game studios within Microsoft that have had great success with beloved games and massively popular franchises like Halo, Forza, and Fable. We're excited to welcome Mojang to the Microsoft family and we are thrilled to support the success and longevity of Minecraft for years to come."

 

The deal came from the Xbox division pocket.

Just because it's counted among the MS game studios, which it now is, doesn't mean it was an Xbox division purchase, the Minecraft purchase goes way beyond that and was decided at a way higher level, I actually doubt Spencer has that much money to throw around for his division.
