Oh man, I bet the auditors have a field day with all these finance guys. 'Hmm, let me see... Yup, you've got securities alright. And they're still here! Good job!'

Ah, I see what they're doing. They're trying to catch us out with that 'EXCEPT' clause. Option D is the only one that doesn't directly relate to the audit of securities investments.

Option D is definitely the odd one out here. Who would forget to audit the balance sheet for securities transactions? That's like Auditing 101!

Hmm, I'm not sure. All of these objectives and steps seem relevant to me. Maybe the exam writers are just trying to trick us.

I think option D is the correct answer. Checking if the institution adequately controls and records sold securities in the balance sheet doesn't seem like a standard audit objective for securities investments.

But D makes sense because it's important to control and record sold securities.
