The need for a bank reconciliation A bank statement will be received from the bank. The balance on the bank statement should be compared with the balance on the bank account in the ledger. The two balances are not likely to be the same: Timing differences Items on the statement not in the ledger accounts Errors A reconciliation is carried out to verify that the balances are correct.

Reasons for differences Items that are in the bank statement but are not in the cash book Automatic payments through the banking system Bank charges Dishonoured cheques Items that are recorded in the cash book but not appearing in the bank statement Un-presented cheques Un-cleared lodgements

Approach Step 1 Step 1 Each item in the bank statement needs to be traced to the cash book in order to identify all items that appear in the bank statement but are not in the cash book. All such items should then be entered in the cash book and a new updated balance calculated. Step 2 Step 2 Each item in the cash book should be traced to the bank statement so as to identify bank deposits and cheques drawn that are not appearing on the bank’s statement because the former are awaiting clearance and the latter are yet to be presented to the bank for payment. The bank reconciliation would look as follows.
