The correct answer is C because there is no dual control due to system limitation, the only compensating control here is to reconcile each transaction with the invoice inorder to ensure the accuracy of the transaction processed.

I go with A. It says there is a system limitation, meaning they will have to use what they already have. Can't assign more work or responsibility since they got no people. Hence, best option is to create a authorization system in between.
