  • B Total sales for the month
  • C Credit sales
  • D Cash sales for the month
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
The amount ₦19,075 represents credit sales. In the Sales Ledger Control Account, the 'Sales' line item typically represents credit sales made during the period. Cash sales would usually be recorded directly in the bank or cash account, not in the sales ledger control account. The sales ledger control account is used to record transactions with credit customers, including sales, payments, returns and discounts.
