Correct Answer

Six required monthly submissions minus four submitted leaves two missing.

Answer Options
A
1.
B
2.
C
2 missing.
D
4 missing.

Why This Is the Correct Answer

Six required monthly submissions minus four submitted leaves two missing.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

Option A: 1.

1. is below the supported result for certified payroll reporting; it likely skips a premium-pay or employer-cost component.

Option B: 2.

2. is not aligned with the supported result for certified payroll reporting; it has the wrong label or classification even if the number looks close.

Option D: 4 missing.

4 missing. is above the supported result for certified payroll reporting; it likely pays the wrong premium tier or counts the same hours twice.

Memory Technique

Who controlled monthly, who paid submissions, where is the Auditing Submissions record?

Reference Hint

Study anchor (closed-book): memorize Certified payroll reporting from California Labor Code Sections 1771.4 and 1776; DIR certified payroll. / California Labor Code Sections 1771.4 and 1776; know the rule or calculation trigger without relying on exam-room lookup.
