    C. $11,498.73.

    Explanation:

    Solving this question, we will have to make use of this formula:

    The Adjusted Bank Balance = Unadjusted Balance as per Bank Statement as at Oct 31, 2015 - Checks Outstanding

    = $12,956.73 - $2,112.19 = $10,844.54

    Now,

    Before the adjustment on the 31st of October, 2015,

    The Cash account Balance = Adjusted Bank Balance + insufficient funds checks

    = $10,844.54 - $654.19 = $11,498.73

    Hence third option in the question is the correct answer.
