Solution
The correct option is C Debit Money kept in Bank account is an asset for us but it is a liability for the bank. Hence, for the bank, any decrease needs to be debited and any increase needs to be credited. When the money is withdrawn from the bank account, the business credits it because there is a decrease in the asset.
But, the bank will debit it because it is a decrease in their liability.
