Answer 2

The correct answer is:
$991.19.

Step-by-step explanation:
His starting balance is 1234.56.

Subtracting the check for plumbing supplies, we have:
1234.56 - 115.12 = 1119.44.

Subtracting the check for his loan payment, we have:
1119.44 - 225.00 = 894.44.

Depositing the 96.75 we have:
894.44 + 96.75 = 991.19.
