Answer:

D. Borrow $2,500

Step-by-step explanation:

Western Company has total available cash of $42,000 (Beg $12,000 & Cash receipts $30,000) but they have to pay obligation in the amount of $34,500. As a result, it will cause their balance below the maintaining amount. Western should borrow to the bank in the amount of $2,500 and directly credit it to it’s account balance in order to attain the desired maintaining balance.
