Microsoft Server 2012 R2 Dataserver Licensing Question

Hypothetically speaking. . . if I buy a server that comes installed with Server 2012 R2 Datacenter from a company that went out of business, what licenses do I need for my users?

Lets say there are ten people in the company, and this server acts as a DC/File server.  Two of the people work remotely.  In this scenario, would I need:

Ten Server 2012 User Cals or
Ten Server 2012 Device Cals (if that was the number of devices in AD on the server)
Two User or Device Remote Desktop Services Cals

My confusion comes in as far as what product do I buy?  Product ID 6VC-01754, 6VC-01756, R18-03683, R18-03755, R18-04092, R18-04281 etc.  I understand that there are different product numbers for different levels and for government, charity, etc.  This is for a business and I want to make sure that I purchase the correct one.  Can someone tell me the correct product ID for what I need to purchase please.  Thank you.
