Solution
The correct option is C Unqualified opinion with an explanatory paragraph
Here, on a special request by the auditee, the auditor has not been able to confirm by a method which is normally adopted by the auditor, instead, on performing an alternative procedure, auditor is satisfied of the amount owned by the client.If the alternative method would not have given results, the auditor may have qualified his report ,but it is not the case, hence auditor may give an unqualified report, assuming other things being normal.
