I feel pretty confident about this one. Based on my understanding of audit trail controls, I think option B is the clear winner - it describes a report that tracks general ledger transactions by time and individual, which is a key part of an adequate audit trail.

Okay, I've got a strategy here. I'm going to eliminate the options that don't seem directly related to an audit trail, then compare the remaining ones to see which one is the best fit.
