C is corrent because the opinion on internal control is for the "as of" date, which is at year-end—accordingly, if the weakness is clearly eliminated prior to year-end an unqualified opinion is appropriate. A is incorrect because an adverse opinion is appropriate when a material weakness exists at year-end. B is incorrect because a qualified opinion is not appropriate when the material weakness has been eliminated. D is incorrect because disclaimers usually occur in scope limitation situations.
