Answer

The answer is: Subtract the amount of a customer's NSF check from the company's balance.

Explanation
Option 1: Subtract interest earned from the bank's balance.

This is incorrect. Interest earned should be added to the company's balance, not subtracted from the bank's balance.

Option 2: Subtract the amount of a customer's NSF check from the company's balance.

This is correct. When a customer's check is returned due to insufficient funds (NSF), the company must subtract this amount from its balance because the expected funds were not actually received.

Option 3: Add service fee to the company's balance.

This is incorrect. Service fees should be subtracted from the company's balance, not added.

Option 4: Add deposits outstanding to the company's balance.

This is incorrect. Deposits outstanding should be added to the bank's balance, not the company's balance, as they represent deposits that have been made but not yet recorded by the bank.
