The correct answer is A.The pseudocode reads a name and an amount, and then accumulates the amounts for each name. When the name changes, it writes the accumulated amount for the previous name and adds it to the final accumulated amount.In the given input, there are three names: John, Mary, and Sue. The accumulated amounts for each name are:John: 20.00 + 30.00 = 50.00Mary: 10.00 + 6.00 = 16.00Sue: 8.00 + 5.00 = 13.00The final accumulated amount is 50.00 + 16.00 + 13.00 = 79.00.Therefore, the output will be:John 50.00Mary 16.00Sue 13.00FINAL-ACCUM 79.00There are 7 lines of output.
