Final answer:
The student's question about calculating the balance on May 30 cannot be answered without the register transactions. The process would involve adding deposits and subtracting withdrawals from the April 30 balance.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find Kurt's balance on May 30, we need to calculate the total difference in his check register from April 30 to May 30. Unfortunately, the check register transactions are not provided in the question. If we had the transactions, we would typically add any deposits to his starting balance and subtract any checks or withdrawals. Once these additions and subtractions are complete, the result would give us his ending balance on May 30.
To find Kurt's balance on May 30, we need to add or subtract the items in his check register from his ending balance on April 30. The question doesn't provide the details of the items in the check register, so we can't determine the exact balance on May 30. However, we can eliminate options based on the given ending balance. Since the ending balance is $331.36, option b ($331.36) is correct, and options a ($220.36), c ($386.36), and d ($481.36) can be eliminated.
