Answer :

To identify which items on the ledger represent credits, we can review each transaction listed:

1. Gift: [tex]$45.00 (positive amount, represents credit) 2. Credit bill: -$[/tex]33.69 (negative amount, does not represent credit)
3. Online auction: [tex]$16.75 (positive amount, represents credit) 4. Insurance payment: -$[/tex]66.41 (negative amount, does not represent credit)
5. Craft fair: -[tex]$24.25 (negative amount, does not represent credit) From this review, we find that the transactions representing credits (positive amounts) are: 1. Gift: $[/tex]45.00
2. Online auction: $16.75

Now, let's match these items with the given choices:

a. Credit bill and craft fair: Both have negative amounts and do not represent credits.
b. Gift and online auction: Both have positive amounts and do represent credits.
c. Gift and insurance payment: Only Gift has a positive amount; insurance payment has a negative amount and does not represent credit.
d. Online auction and craft fair: Online auction has a positive amount, but craft fair has a negative amount and does not represent credit.

Therefore, the choice that includes both items representing credits is:
b. Gift and online auction

The best answer is:
