Final answer:
The Trial Balance would be out of balance if the Accounts Receivable balance, typically a debit, is incorrectly placed in the Credit column. Other options indicating entry of balances in their conventional columns (debit for expenses and equipment, credit for capital) would not cause an imbalance. Therefore correct option is C
Step-by-step explanation:
To determine which of the following would cause the Trial Balance to be out of balance, we should understand the nature of each account mentioned. By convention, expense accounts like Rent Expense should have a debit balance, and asset accounts like Equipment and Accounts Receivable should also normally have a debit balance. Conversely, equity accounts like the Capital account should have a credit balance.
The correct answer concerns where we would place the Accounts Receivable balance. If we were to place this typically debit balance in the credit column, it would cause an imbalance in the Trial Balance. The rest of the options involve placing account balances on the correct side of the Trial Balance and would not result in an imbalance.
