IF((A1+A2-A3) < A4, A4, A1+A2-A3)

Explanation / Answer

Correct answer is A

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Cash balance at the end of year 2017 is

Remaining cash balance = opening cash balance + Cash receipts – Cash disbursement

                                             = 100000 + 600000 – 750000

                                             = (50000)

So total cash balance at the end of the year is (50000)
