Bank Reconciliation Statements

Muhtasari

The balance a business thinks it has in the bank and the balance the bank statement actually shows are almost never identical on any given day, and that is entirely normal. Cheques take days to clear, direct debits appear on the statement before the business hears about them, and bank charges arrive silently at the end of the month. A bank reconciliation statement proves the two figures agree once timing differences are accounted for.

In this lesson you will learn why bank reconciliations are prepared, how to update the cash book for items the business did not yet know about, and how to prepare a bank reconciliation statement that reconciles the cash book to the bank statement.

Malengo

  1. Explain the purpose of bank reconciliation statements
  2. Understand the process of bank reconciliation
  3. Prepare a bank reconciliation statement

Maelezo ya Somo

A business keeps its own record of money in and out of the bank in its cash book. The bank keeps an entirely separate record and issues a bank statement. Both records should describe the same underlying account, but because of timing differences and items only the bank knows about, the two closing balances rarely match on any single day.
