Glencoe Accounting

49. Bank Reconciliation
A bank reconciliation is prepared periodically to explain the difference between cash reported on the bank statement and the cash balance on company’s books.
When a company deposits all cash receipts and makes all cash payments (except petty cash) by check, it can use the bank statement for proving the accuracy of its cash records. This is done using a bank reconciliation, which is a report explaining any differences between the checking account balance according to the depositor’s records and the balance reported on the bank statement.

Bank Reconciliation
The balance of a checking account reported on the bank statement rarely equals the balance in the depositor’s accounting records.

+ Deposits in Transit
- Outstanding Checks
+/- Errors
Adjusted Cash Balance
Cash Balance per Book
+ Collections & Interest
- Uncollectible items
+/- Errors
Adjusted Cash Balance
The balance of a checking account reported on the bank statement rarely equals the balance in the depositor’s accounting records. This is usually due to information that one party has that the other does not. We must therefore prove the accuracy of both the depositor’s records and those of the bank. This means we must reconcile the two balances and explain or account for any differences in them. Among the factors causing the bank statement balance to differ from the depositor’s book balance are these:
Deposits in transit
Outstanding checks
Additions for collections and for interest
Deductions for uncollectible items for services
Errors =
Adjusting entries are recorded for the reconciling items on the book side of the reconciliation. P3

Adjusted Cash Balance
We follow nine steps in preparing the bank reconciliation. It is helpful to refer to the bank reconciliation illustrated on this slide as we walk through steps 1 through 9.
1. Identify the bank statement balance of the Cash account (balance per bank). VideoBuster’s bank balance is $2,050.
2. Identify and list any unrecorded deposits and any bank errors understating the bank balance. Add them to the bank balance. VideoBuster’s $145 deposit placed in the bank’s night depository on October 31 is not recorded on its bank statement.
3. Identify and list any outstanding checks and any bank errors overstating the bank balance. Deduct them from the bank balance. VideoBuster’s comparison of canceled checks with its books shows two checks outstanding: No. 124 for $150 and No. 126 for $200.
4. Compute the adjusted bank balance, also called the corrected or reconciled balance. P3

5. Identify the company’s book balance of the Cash account (balance per book). VideoBuster’s book balance is $1,
6. Identify and list any unrecorded credit memoranda from the bank, any interest earned, and errors understating the book balance. Add them to the book balance. VideoBuster’s bank statement includes a credit memorandum showing the bank collected a note receivable for the company on October 23. The note’s proceeds of $500 (minus a $15 collection fee) are credited to the company’s account. VideoBuster’s bank statement also shows a credit of $8.42 for interest earned on the average cash balance. There was no prior notification of this item, and it is not yet recorded.
7. Identify and list any unrecorded debit memoranda from the bank, any service charges, and errors overstating the book balance. Deduct them from the book balance. Debits on VideoBuster’s bank statement that are not yet recorded include (a) a $23 charge for check printing and (b) an NSF check for $20 plus a related $10 processing fee. (The NSF check is dated October 16 and was included in the book balance.)
8. Compute the adjusted book balance, also called corrected or reconciled balance. P3
Glencoe Accounting

53. We follow nine steps in preparing the bank reconciliation.
Verify that the two adjusted balances from steps 4 and 8 are equal. If so, they are reconciled. If not, check for accuracy and missing data to achieve reconciliation.
A bank reconciliation often identifies unrecorded items that need recording by the company. In VideoBuster’s reconciliation, the adjusted balance of $1,845 is the correct balance as of October 31. But the company’s accounting records show a $1, balance. We must prepare journal entries to adjust the book balance to the correct balance. It is important to remember that only the items reconciling the book balance require adjustment.
Adjusting entries are recorded for the reconciling items on the book side of the reconciliation. P3
