    The excess cash balance is $9000 and option C is the correct answer.

    Explanation:

    The excess cash balance is the ending cash balance for the month less the desired reserve. If the desired reserve is more than the ending balance, there is a shortfall.

    The ending cash balance for a month can be calculated as follows,

    Ending cash balance = Opening cash balance + Receipts - Disbursements

    Ending Cash balance = 12000 + 57000 - 51000 = $18000

    The excess cash balance is = 18000 - 9000 = $9000
