Answer C
2. Three possible explanation for the above differences:
a. The bank disbursements (58,438) may be overstated by P10,000. Another company check
for P10,000 may have been charge erroneously by the bank against the clients’ account.
b. The December 31 outstanding checks may be understated by P10,000. Since the bank
reconciliation given in the problem was prepared by the company employee, there is no
assurance that it is correct.

2010. The client has not prepared the July 31 bank reconciliation. After a brief discussion
with the owner you agree to prepare the reconciliation, with assistance from one of Dion

Information in General Ledger and Bank Statement

Balance per bank P 57,530


Deposits in transit 6,000
Outstanding checks 17,420
Balance per books 46, 110

Additional information obtained is:

1. Checks clearing that were outstanding on June 30 totaled P16,920.


2. Checks clearing that were recorded in the July disbursement journal totaled

different company’s bank account.
5. Deposits included P6,000 from June and P244,560 for July.
6. The bank charged Dion Company’s account for a nonsufficient check totaling P3,
110. The credit manager concluded that the customer intentionally closed its
account and the owner left the city. The check was turned over to a collection
agency.
7. A note for P58,000, plus interest, was paid directly to the bank under an agreement
signed four months ago. The note payable was recorded at P58,000 on Dion
Company’s books.

B. Check for absence of note on July 31 bank confirmation.
C. Trace payment to duplicate deposit slip.
D. Obtain cutoff bank statement.

5. The auditor would perform the following procedures to verify the umrecorded

A. Obtain cutoff bank statement.
B. Examine checks returned with July bank statement.
C. Trace check number to absence in July cash disbursement journal and
recording in August.
D. Examine supporting document.

Solution

1. C
Outstanding checks, June 30 P 17,420
Add: checks issued in July (P218, 110 per cash disbursement
journal + P10,600 unrecorded check) 228,710
Total 246, 130
Less: checks paid by bank in July (P236, 150 - P3,960
erroneous check charged by bank) 232, 190
Outstanding checks, July 31 P 13,940

Alternative computation:

Checks outstanding on June 30 that did not clear in July


(P17,420 - P16,920) P 500
Checks issued in July that did not clear in July (P218, 110 –
P204,670) 13,440
Outstanding checks, July 31 P 13,940

2. B
Deposit in transit, June 30 P 6,000
Add: July deposits per cash receipts journal 254,560
Total 260,560
Less: deposits credited by bank in July 250,560
Deposits in transit, July 31 P 10,000

3. A
Book Bank
Unadjusted balances P 82,560 P 6,960
Outstanding checks (see no. 1) (13,940)
Deposits in transit (see no. 2) 10,000
Bank service charge (870)
Unrecorded check (10,600)
Check erroneously charged to Dion 3,960
NSF check (3, 110)
Note payment (P58,000 principal +
P3,000 interest) (61,000)
Adjusted balances P 6,980 P 6,980

4. B
The following audit procedures would be performed to verify the note payment:
a. Examine cancelled check.
b. Recompute interest.
c. Check for absence of note on July 31 bank confirmation.

5. A
The following audit procedures would be performed to verify the unrecorded check:
a. Examine check returned with July bank statement.
b. Trace number to absence in July cash disbursements journal and recording in
August.
c. Examine supporting documentation
d. Investigate why it was unrecorded.

The cutoff bank statement will no longer show the unrecorded check because it was
already paid by bank in July.

The following information was obtained in an audit of the cash account of CHELSEE
COMPANY as of December 31, 2010. Assume that the CPA has satisfied himself as to the
propriety of the cash book, the bank statements, and the returned checks, except as noted:

1. The bookkeeper’s bank reconciliation at November 30, 2010.

Balance per bank statement P 194,000

3. Included with cancelled checks returned with the December bank statement were the
checks listed below.

4. The Chelsee Company discounted its own 60-day note for P90,000 with the bank on
December 1, 2010. The discount rate was 6 percent. The accountant recorded the proceeds
as a cash receipt at the face value of the note.

5. The accountant records customers’ dishonored checks as a reduction of cash receipts.


When the dishonored checks are redeposited they are recorded as a regular cash receipt.
Two NSF checks for P1,800 and P2,200 were returned by the bank during December. Both
checks were redeposited and were recorded by the accountant.

6. Cancellation of Chelsee Company checks are recorded by a reduction of cash


disbursements.

7. December bank charges were P200. In addition, a P100 service charge was made in
December for the collection of a note receivable in November. These charges were not
recorded on the books.

8. Check no. 144 listed in the November outstanding check was drawn in 2008. Since the
payee cannot be located, the president of Chelsee Company agreed to the CPA’s suggestion
that the check be written back into the accounts by a journal entry.

9. Outstanding checks at December 31, 2010, totaled P49,400, including checks 1434 and
1584.

10. The cutoff bank statement disclosed that the bank had recorded a deposit of P24,000 on
January 2, 2011. The accountant had recorded this deposit on the books on December 31,
2010, and then mailed the deposit to the bank.

was recorded in the cash disbursements
journal.

returned by the payee because it was
mutilated. Check 1584 was not cancelled

by the president of the company as a cash
advance for travel expense. The president

Company.
1595 12/20/10 3,500 This check had been labeled NSF and

erroneously believed that the check was
drawn by the Chelsee Company.

8. A proof of cash usually consists of four columns, with reconciliations of beginning
and end-of-period cash balances and reconciliations of cash receipts and
disbursements during the period. The amounts appearing in the ledger and on the
bank statement should reconcile both horizontally and vertically. This
reconciliation therefore directs unauthorized disbursements and unrecorded
deposits for the period. This is useful when internal control over cash transactions
is weak or inadequate.

Cash Shortage Computation
The bookkeeper-cashier of the TANYING COMPANY absconded on the evening of April 16,
2011, apparently with a large portion of the company’s cash. He had taken with him
certain accounting records, including the cash journals and the general ledger. You are
called upon to ascertain, if possible, the shortage with which the missing employee may
be charged.

You obtained the following information from the available subsidiary journals, ledgers,
and other data.

Balances at close of business, April 16, 2011:

Accounts Receivable P442,550


Accounts Payable 207,300
Cash in bank, less checks outstanding 98,830
Transactions, January 1-April 16, 2011:

Sales, per receivable clerk P5,876,170


Cash sales none
Sales allowance in customers’ accounts 18,330
Cash purchase of furniture, per dealer’s invoice 3,000
Total merchandise purchases 3,615,260
Expenses paid, supported by paid invoices and payrolls 1,865,830
Cash dividend declared, P50,000 (of which, P10,000
Remains unpaid) 40,000

A check for P100,000 had been cashed by the bookkeeper shortly before his departure.
Although the signature on the check had been obviously forged, it was paid by the
bank and returned with other cancelled checks.
