Bank Reconciliation Statement
August 31, 2013
Balance on bank statement
Addition: Deposit in transit, August 28
Deductions for outstanding checks
SOLUTIONS TO BUSINESS CONNECTIONS
Managerial Focus:
1. a. No assurance money taken actually accounted for.
b. A gap in the control of cash exists, and unauthorized expenditures can be made.
c. Increases the opportunity for theft; no current cash position is known.
d. Increases risk of theft.
e. Weakens internal control over cash receipts.
2. To pay bills in a timely fashion, anticipate fund shortages or overages, and take advantage of
investment opportunities.
3. Errors noted by the bank may not be communicated to management.
4. a. Yes. Blank endorsements are not secure.
b. Yes. Checkbook should be kept in a locked drawer and should be available only to specified
employees.
c. Yes. To deter fraud, different tasks should be assigned to different employees.
d. Yes. Reconciliation should be done soon after receiving bank statement.
e. Yes. Financial records should be maintained for a reasonable number of years in case of a tax audit.
f. No. Most firms write several checks monthly, and the task would be impractical.
5. Essential assets should be safeguarded against loss and theft.
6. Up-to-date cash position; information for day-to-day business decisions.
7. Insures again losses.
8. Control of cash; audit trail.
Ethical Dilemma:
No, this was not an ethical action, as it was not Daniel’s money.
Daniel should admit his theft and make arrangements to repay the amount stolen.
Financial Statement Analysis:
1. 10.20%
2. Increased by $902 million.
3. The balance reported for “Cash and cash equivalents” would be understated by $125,000.
Teamwork:
A Sales Invoice for each job should be given to each customer with a place to incorporate any
additions or subtractions for service. Any changes must be communicated to the home office and an
approval number will be given. The Sales Invoice, as well as each change, should be signed by the
customer. Only cash and money orders should be allowed since the families have just moved and do
not currently have a local bank.
Internet Connection:
Each bank should list the possible interest rates, both variable and fixed. Most banks will be within a
few tenths of points of each other.
