    Credit side of the trial balance will be understated by $9

    Explanation:

    Note Payable has a credit balance of $ 65 by writing it as $56 it will understate the total credit value by $9 (65 - 56). Trial will be imbalanced. Ultimately the Balance sheet will not balance, it will show $9 more assets than the total equity and liabilities. The note payable is recorded in the liabilities section of the balance sheet which will be a cause of imbalance of balance sheet too.
