Suggested answer: A

Explanation:

For a bank account in foreign currency, the SAP S/4HANA Cloud system evaluates the balance of this account in local currency using the exchange rate valid on the last day of the period during the foreign currency valuation run. This approach ensures that the financial statements reflect the most current value of foreign currency balances in terms of the local currency, accounting for any fluctuations in exchange rates throughout the period. This valuation is essential for accurate financial reporting and risk management.
