Answer: d. Estimated revenues control should be credited for $20 million

Explanation: The estimated revenue control of Rolan County which amounts to $20 million will be a debit upon adoption as it an anticipatory asset. Therefore when closing the budgetary account, the estimated control revenue will be credited for the initial debited amount of $20 million since no entries are made to them when the closing budget entry is being made.
