Final answer:

The correct answer is d. none of the above because none of the options would produce an account balance that is not normal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is d. none of the above. None of the options provided would necessarily produce an account balance that is not normal. Here's why:

  1. Underpayment of an account payable would result in a lower account balance, but it would still be a normal balance.
  2. An overpayment of an account receivable by a customer would result in a higher account balance, but it would still be a normal balance.
  3. An underaccrual of interest expense would result in a lower account balance, but it would still be a normal balance.

Therefore, the correct choice is d. none of the above.
