Bank Reconciliation Statement

 

1.     Bank Reconciliation Statement is a statement to reconcile the balances of cash book and the passbook balance

 

2.     The differences between the cash book and the bank passbook is caused by: • timing differences on recording of the transactions. • errors made by the business or by the bank.

 

3.     The difference, which is caused by the time gap in recording the transactions relating either to payments or receipts is timing differences

 

4.     The timing differences include:

 

ü  Cheques issued by the bank but not yet presented for payment

ü  Cheques paid into the bank but not yet collected

ü  Direct debits made by the bank on behalf of the customer

ü  Amounts directly deposited in the bank account

ü  Interest and dividends collected by the bank

ü  Direct payments made by the bank on behalf of the customers

ü  Cheques deposited/bills discounted dishonoured

5.     The difference between the two balances may be accounted for by an error on the part of the bank or an error in the cash book of the business is called differences caused by errors

6.     The error differences are due to

·       Errors committed in recording transaction by the firm

·       Errors committed in recording transactions by the bank

7.     Deposit balance of cash book shows debit balance

8.     Deposit balance of passbook shows credit balance

9.     Overdraft balance of cash book shows credit balance

10.  Overdraft balance of passbook shows debit balance

Discussion points:

*    Cash book balance Rs.7020 but the pass book balance Rs. 7470

*    Some items not entered in the cash book like bank charges, insurance premium, interest, interest on investment

*    Like-wise some items not entered in the passbook such as receipts from Manoj, Sumesh & Payment to Sandheep etc

These are reasons why this pass book & cash book balances shows differences. In order to reconcile the balances of cash book & pass book balances we have to prepare a statement called Bank Reconciliation Statement. Let’s discuss more about BRS in today’s class.
