Answer: The correct answer is "(A) Debit Accounts Receivable and credit Cash for $560".

Explanation: The non-existent 560 must be adjusted in the cash account, and the 560 receivable must be added to the third party that issued the check in the "accounts receivable" account.

The entry would be:

Accounts Receivable 560

Cash 560
