Question

the debits and credits for each journal entry are posted to the accounts in
a. no special order.
b. alphabetical order.
c. the order in which they occur in the journal.
d. the order in which they occur in the chart of accounts.

Explanation:

When posting debits and credits from journal entries to accounts, the standard practice is to post them in the order they appear in the journal. Alphabetical order (option b) or chart of accounts order (option d) isn't used for posting from journal entries. "No special order" (option a) is incorrect as there is a defined order. So the correct option is c.

Answer:

c. the order in which they occur in the journal.
