Answer 1

Check 318 was not cashed or deposited is the answer.

Answer 2

Answer:

Option D. check 318 was not cashed or deposited.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we will check the statement transactions

Total with-drawls done = 58.29 + 75.40 + 121.57 + 33.52 = $288.78

Total deposits = 250 + 250 = $500

Opening balance was $750 so as per our calculations closing balance should be 750 + 500 - 288.78 = $961.22 which matches with bank's balance of the statement.

But Larry's checkbook has a balance of $922.63 which different from the bank's balance.

This clearly states that check 318 was not cashed or deposited which is making a difference.

Option D is the answer.
