2 Chapter 7 Accounting for Cash

3 Includes: Currency, coins, and checking accounts Checks received from customers Money orders Bank cashier s checks Because cash plays such a central role in operating a business, it must be carefully managed and controlled.

4 A set of procedures designed to ensure proper accounting for transactions Good internal control for cash transactions: All cash received should be deposited DAILY in a bank All disbursements, except for payments from petty cash, should be made by CHECK

5 1 Describe how to open and use a checking account.

6 Each person authorized to sign checks must complete and sign a signature card. This card is used to verify the depositor s signature on any banking transactions.

7 A deposit ticket is a form showing a detailed listing of items being deposited Currency, coins, and checks are listed separately Each check should be identified by its ABA (American Bankers Association) number Found in upper right-hand corner of each check Also shown in magnetic ink character recognition (MICR) code on the lower left side of the front of each check The code is used to sort and route checks

8 Each check being deposited must be endorsed by the depositor Consist of stamping or writing the depositor s name and sometimes other information on the back of the check Blank endorsement The depositor simply signs the back of the check This makes the check payable to any bearer Restrictive endorsement The depositor adds words such as For deposit, Pay to any bank, or Pay to Daryl Beck only for payment restriction

9 Each depositor has a plastic card and a personal identification number (PIN). Most automated teller machines (ATMs) are on a system that allows noncustomers to use their ATMs. It is important for the depositor to keep an accounting record of ATM withdrawals and deposits.

10 A check is a document ordering a bank to pay cash from a depositor s account. There are three parties to every check: Drawer the depositor who orders the bank to pay the cash Drawee the bank on which the check is drawn Payee the person being paid the cash Business checks often have a check stub.

11 Complete the check stub or register. Enter the date, payee name, and amount on the check. Sign the check. The check should not be signed until the check signer has verified that all aspects of the check are correct.

12 The statement shows: The balance at the BEGINNING of the period Deposits and other amounts ADDED during the period Checks and other amounts SUBTRACTED during the period The balance at the END of the period

13 Sent with bank statement Canceled checks, imaged sheets of check faces, or a listing of checks Any other forms representing items added to or subtracted from the account

62 The petty cash fund should be replenished whenever the fund runs low and at the end of each accounting period. Once the fund is established by debiting Petty Cash and crediting Cash, no further entries are made to Petty Cash. To replenish the fund, debits are made to appropriate expense accounts and Cash is credited. Only if the amount of the fund itself is being changed would there be a debit or credit to Petty Cash.

63 . At the end of the month, the petty cash fund contains eight vouchers and only $21.20 in cash. The fund needs to be replenished. To replenish the fund: A check is written for $178.80, which is the total of the eight vouchers A journal entry is made to recognize: The expenses shown on the vouchers The outflow of cash via the check
