With the Azure CLI version 2.0.20 I am suddenly not able to create ACS clusters anymore.
The resource group testrg has been created with:
az group create -l westus -n testrg
Both az aks and acs fail. Commands used:
az aks create -n test-k8s-stg -g testrg
az acs create --orchestrator-type=kubernetes --resource-group testrg --name=test-nix-stg --admin-username test-admin --admin-password TestPassword --generate-ssh-keys
Both fail with error:
Insufficient privileges to complete the operation.

I am able to create other resources with the CLI, for instance a web app with commands:
az appservice plan create -g testrg-n B1Plan --is-linux
az webapp create --resource-group testrg --name testwebapp -p B1Plan -r "node|8.1"
As Weinong Wang pointed out, I had to supply the AppId of an existing service principal with its client secret because I don't have permissions to create a new service principal for the cluster.
The commands to create a new cluster and configuring kubectl to connect to it are:
az aks create -n test-k8s-stg -g testrg
az acs create --orchestrator-type=kubernetes --resource-group testrg --name=test-nix-stg --admin-username test-admin --admin-password TestPassword --generate-ssh-keys --service-principal "xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx" --client-secret "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx="
az acs kubernetes get-credentials --resource-group=testrg --name=test-nix-stg
