A Level Accounting (9706)•9706/12/M/J/25

Explanation
Suspense Account Error Corrections Steps:
- Note opening debit balance of 100 less than credits to force agreement.
- Observe debit entry for discount allowed 150 to credit it.
- Examine credit entries totaling 150 + $50), representing adjustments like undercast sales, but irrelevant to the statements.
- Confirm statements 2 and 3 align with these: initial 150 overcast correction.
Why C is correct:
- Combines statement 2 (opening 100 less than credits per trial balance rules) and 3 (debit suspense $150 directly fixes discount allowed overcast by reducing its balance).
Why the others are wrong:
- A: Includes 1, but 100 discrepancy shown by opening balance.
- B: Omits valid 2 and 3 tied to suspense entries.
- D: Excludes 2, but $100 opening debit confirms the trial balance shortfall.
Final answer: C
