Bank Reconciliation Statement

As on 30th Shrawan 2082

Particulars Amount (Rs.)
Balance as per Cash Book 80,000
Add: Cheque issued but not presented 30,000
Add: Service charge not entered 1,000
Add: Cheque deposited but not collected 10,000
Total 121,000
Less: Dividend not recorded 5,000
Balance as per Bank Statement 116,000

Working Notes:

  1. Cheque issued but not presented (Rs. 30,000)

    • These cheques are deducted from the cash book but not yet presented to the bank. Hence, they must be added back to the cash book balance to match the bank statement.
  2. Service charge of Rs. 1,000

    • This expense was charged by the bank but not yet recorded in the cash book. It reduces the bank balance, so it must be added to the cash book balance to reconcile.
  3. Cheque deposited but not collected (Rs. 10,000)

    • The cheque was deposited into the bank but not yet cleared. It increases the cash book balance but not yet reflected in the bank statement. Thus, it must be added to the cash book balance.
  4. Dividend received (Rs. 5,000)

    • The dividend was credited by the bank but not yet recorded in the cash book. It increases the bank balance, so it must be deducted from the cash book balance to reconcile.

Final Answer: The balance as per Bank Statement is Rs. 116,000.
