Just to clarify, the gas bill was recorded twice, right?

I think the correct entry involves reducing the suspense account, but I can't recall the exact journal entry format we used.

I feel a bit confused about whether the credit balance means we should be debiting or crediting something else.

This question seems similar to one we practiced about correcting double entries. I think we need to debit the gas account to fix it.

This seems like a pretty straightforward question. The data needs to persist throughout the current shopping experience, so I'm thinking a session scope variable would be the best option.

I think the key is to focus on indexing and reducing the amount of data returned. The "only update records that have changed" option sounds interesting, but I'll need to understand how that works in practice.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on this one. I know that WEP is not secure, so B is definitely not the answer. But I'm not sure if broadcasting on 5Ghz or putting the network on a separate VLAN would really help prevent eavesdropping. I think I'll go with C just to be safe.

C makes the most sense to me. Debit the suspense account to remove the credit balance, and credit the gas account to fix the double recording. Textbook accounting, really.
