The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

A surplus in the Balance of Payments occurs when autonomous receipts (inflows from exports, foreign investments, etc.) exceed autonomous payments (outflows for imports, investments abroad, etc.). This surplus indicates a favorable balance of payments, as it reflects higher inflows compared to outflows.
