The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

For a "no error" type question, the safest method is to look for one common mistake type in each segment: wrong tense, wrong voice, wrong preposition, or wrong possessive form.

  1. Segment 1 (Your account should): a modal verb placed before the main verb is standard, so there is nothing off in word order or form here.
  2. Segment 2 (have been credited): this combines "should" with the passive perfect "have been credited," which is the right way to express an action that ought to have already happened to the account. Both tense and voice check out.
  3. Segment 3 (with three months' interest): the preposition "with" fits naturally after "credited," and "three months'" uses the correct plural possessive apostrophe for a time period.

None of the three segments show a tense, voice, preposition, or possessive mistake, so the sentence as printed is fully correct.

Let's summarize:

  • should have been credited = correct passive perfect form
  • three months' interest = correct plural possessive
  • no segment carries an error

So option 4 (no error) is the answer.
