Explanation:

• For the first question: A memorandum (memo) is often used in accounting to record a brief message about a transaction. A receipt is for acknowledging payment received. An invoice is a request for payment. A journal is a record of transactions but not specifically a document with a brief message like a memo.
• For the second question: Proving cash means verifying that the cash total matches the accounting records. The double - line rule is for formatting in accounting books. Double - entry accounting is a system of recording transactions. Standard accounting practices is a broad term and not specific to this verification.
