Bank Reconciliation
Akopọ
The business keeps its own record of money in the bank, the bank column of the cash book, and the bank keeps its own record, the bank statement. The two should describe the same account, yet they rarely show the same balance on any given day. Cheques take time to clear, deposits take time to appear, and the bank quietly adds charges and collects standing orders that the business has not yet written up. Bank reconciliation is the disciplined process of explaining every one of those differences.
In this lesson you will learn why the two records differ, how to bring the cash book up to date with the items only the bank knew about, and how to prepare a bank reconciliation statement that ties the updated cash book balance to the bank statement balance. You will see why this is a powerful control against fraud and error, and how the move to digital banking is changing the picture.
