ACS element text (the applicant demonstrates understanding of)

Compute the weight and balance, correct out-of-center of gravity loading errors and determine if the weight and balance remains within limits during all phases of flight.

Bottom line

CG limits—the specified forward and aft points within which the CG must be located during flight. If the CG is not within the allowable limits after loading, it will be necessary to relocate some items before flight is attempted.
