CPSC 333: How are Balances Computed for Account Listings?

Location: [CPSC 333] [Assignments] [More about Problem to Model for Question #1 on Assignment #2]


Question:

Does the ``account listing'' report compute the closing balance by applying all transactions for the account to the opening balance, or just the registered ones? Does the report indicate which transactions are registered?

Answer:

The system uses all transactions for an account, registered or not, in order to compute the closing balance that is shown on an account listing.

Yes, it would be a good idea to show whether each transaction is ``registered'' or not, on this listing.
