I think D is more likely, could show if she's skimming.

I recall that electronic payments usually don't show market values of properties, so A) seems unlikely. But I wonder if they could hint at skimming, like in option D).

I feel like the records could help trace the division and distribution of Lottie's assets, so C) might be a contender too, but I'm leaning towards B) as the best answer.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember a practice question that discussed how payment records can indicate if someone is skimming funds, so maybe D) is also a possibility?

I think the electronic payment records would most likely reveal B) The assets that Lottie has purchased, since those transactions would show what she spent money on.
