Hmm, I'm pretty sure it's B. Missing expense voucher. That seems like the most straightforward explanation to me.

That's a good point, Izetta. It could be either of those reasons causing the $10 difference.

I disagree, I believe it could also be C) A $20 bill has been counted as a $10 bill in the float.
