The correct answer is C.
The adjusted trial balance shows the unadjusted trial balance plus any adjustments at the end of the period and is used to determine that your debits and credits still balance after the adjustments have been made.

On an adjusted trial balance there is no net income (Loss) account. This account is on the Income Statement part of the Worksheet and is used to account for the difference between your debits and credits.
