I recall a practice question that was similar, and it focused on how businesses manipulate their books. A seems to be the right choice, but I’m still a bit unsure.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about recording but not depositing revenue being a tactic too. Maybe it's C?

I think the answer might be A, overstating revenues. We talked about that in class as a common method for money laundering.

Okay, I think I've got it. The key is that the question is asking about a method of disguising illegal income, so A seems like the best answer.

C) Recording but not depositing rBorisnue is also a method used to hide illegal money, as it creates a paper trail without actually depositing the funds.
