Answer:

The correct answer is letter "C": Positive confirmations.

Step-by-step explanation:

Positive confirmations are audit procedures by which ambiguous information is clarified. It also implies the confirmation of the accuracy of the data provided in the company's books and Financial Statements. By doing so, liabilities, bank accounts, accounts receivables and payables amounts are verified.
