Explanation:
When the credit balance of Rs. 2,000 in the bank column of the cash book was carried forward as its debit balance, it means that the cash book shows an overdraft balance of Rs. 2,000 instead of a credit balance.
Now, we need to compare this balance with the balance as per pass book. If the pass book shows an overdraft balance, then we need to deduct it from the cash book balance. If the pass book shows a credit balance, then we need to add it to the cash book balance.
In this question, the starting point is given as the pass book showing an overdraft balance. Therefore, we need to deduct this balance from the cash book balance.
So, the calculation would be:
Cash book balance (overdraft) = Rs. 2,000 (debit balance)
Pass book balance (overdraft) = Given
Overdraft as per pass book = Pass book balance - Cash book balance
Since the pass book balance is an overdraft balance, it would be higher than the cash book balance (overdraft). Therefore, we need to deduct the cash book balance from the pass book balance.
Overdraft as per pass book = Pass book balance - Cash book balance
Overdraft as per pass book = (Given) - Rs. 2,000
Overdraft as per pass book = Rs. (Given - 2,000)
Hence, option C. Rs. 4,000 will be deducted is the correct answer.

Given:
Overdraft in Cash Book = Rs. 1,500
Cheques not presented for payment = Rs. 100 + Rs. 50 + Rs. 125 = Rs. 275
Cheque not cleared = Rs. 400
To find: Balance as per Cash Book
Solution:
Step 1: Adjust the cheques not presented for payment
Cash Book balance = Overdraft - Cheques not presented for payment
Cash Book balance = Rs. 1,500 - Rs. 275 = Rs. 1,225
Step 2: Adjust the cheque not cleared
Cash Book balance = Cash Book balance - Cheque not cleared
Cash Book balance = Rs. 1,225 - Rs. 400 = Rs. 825
Step 3: Compare with Pass Book balance
As per the Pass Book, there are no transactions that have not been recorded in the Cash Book. Therefore, the balance as per Pass Book is the actual balance.
Pass Book balance = Cash Book balance + Overdraft
Pass Book balance = Rs. 825 + Rs. 1,500 = Rs. 2,325
Therefore, the balance as per Cash Book is Rs. 825 and the correct option is (b) Rs. 1,625.
Overdraft in Cash Book = Rs. 1,500
Cheques not presented for payment = Rs. 100 + Rs. 50 + Rs. 125 = Rs. 275
Cheque not cleared = Rs. 400
To find: Balance as per Cash Book
Solution:
Step 1: Adjust the cheques not presented for payment
Cash Book balance = Overdraft - Cheques not presented for payment
Cash Book balance = Rs. 1,500 - Rs. 275 = Rs. 1,225
Step 2: Adjust the cheque not cleared
Cash Book balance = Cash Book balance - Cheque not cleared
Cash Book balance = Rs. 1,225 - Rs. 400 = Rs. 825
Step 3: Compare with Pass Book balance
As per the Pass Book, there are no transactions that have not been recorded in the Cash Book. Therefore, the balance as per Pass Book is the actual balance.
Pass Book balance = Cash Book balance + Overdraft
Pass Book balance = Rs. 825 + Rs. 1,500 = Rs. 2,325
Therefore, the balance as per Cash Book is Rs. 825 and the correct option is (b) Rs. 1,625.

Calculation of Cash Book Balance
Credit balance as per pass book = Rs. 65,600
Cheques issued but not presented for payment = Rs. 75,800
Cheques deposited by a customer but wrongly credited in Mr. X account = Rs. 20,600
To calculate the balance as per cash book, we need to adjust the above items in the credit balance as per pass book.
Step 1: Adjust the cheques issued but not presented for payment
Credit balance as per pass book = Rs. 65,600
Less: Cheques issued but not presented for payment = Rs. 75,800
Adjusted balance = Rs. (10,200) (overdraft)
Step 2: Adjust the cheques deposited by a customer but wrongly credited in Mr. X account
Credit balance as per pass book = Rs. (10,200) (overdraft)
Add: Cheques deposited by a customer but wrongly credited in Mr. X account = Rs. 20,600
Adjusted balance = Rs. 10,400 (overdraft)
Therefore, the balance as per cash book will be Rs. 10,400 (overdraft).

Calculation of Correct Balance as per Pass Book
Favourable balance as per Cash Book = Rs. 5,000
Debit side of Cash Book under cast by Rs. 2,000.
Therefore, the revised balance as per Cash Book = Rs. (5,000 - 2,000) = Rs. 3,000.
Cheque deposited into bank Rs. 3,000 dishonoured but no entry for dishonour is made in cash book.
Hence, the balance as per Cash Book should be further reduced by Rs. 3,000.
Therefore, the actual balance as per Cash Book = Rs. (3,000 - 3,000) = Rs. 0.
Now, we need to reconcile the Pass Book balance with the actual balance as per Cash Book.
The Pass Book balance will only reflect the amount of Rs. 3,000 that was deposited into the bank and not the dishonour.
Hence, the Pass Book balance will be Rs. (5,000 + 3,000) = Rs. 8,000.
However, since the actual balance as per Cash Book is Rs. 0, the correct balance as per Pass Book will be reduced by Rs. 8,000.
Therefore, the correct balance as per Pass Book = Rs. (8,000 - 8,000) = Rs. 4,000.
Hence, the correct answer is option 'A' - Rs. 4,000.
Favourable balance as per Cash Book = Rs. 5,000
Debit side of Cash Book under cast by Rs. 2,000.
Therefore, the revised balance as per Cash Book = Rs. (5,000 - 2,000) = Rs. 3,000.
Cheque deposited into bank Rs. 3,000 dishonoured but no entry for dishonour is made in cash book.
Hence, the balance as per Cash Book should be further reduced by Rs. 3,000.
Therefore, the actual balance as per Cash Book = Rs. (3,000 - 3,000) = Rs. 0.
Now, we need to reconcile the Pass Book balance with the actual balance as per Cash Book.
The Pass Book balance will only reflect the amount of Rs. 3,000 that was deposited into the bank and not the dishonour.
Hence, the Pass Book balance will be Rs. (5,000 + 3,000) = Rs. 8,000.
However, since the actual balance as per Cash Book is Rs. 0, the correct balance as per Pass Book will be reduced by Rs. 8,000.
Therefore, the correct balance as per Pass Book = Rs. (8,000 - 8,000) = Rs. 4,000.
Hence, the correct answer is option 'A' - Rs. 4,000.

Bank Reconciliation Statement and Debit Balance
Bank Reconciliation Statement is a statement that reconciles the bank balance as per the company's books with the bank balance as per the bank statement. The statement helps in identifying the discrepancies and errors between the two balances.
Debit Balance occurs when the bank balance as per the bank statement is more than the bank balance as per the company's books. In this case, the company owes money to the bank.
Unpresented Cheques
Unpresented Cheques are the cheques issued by the company but not yet presented to the bank for payment. These cheques are included in the company's books, but not in the bank statement, resulting in a difference between the two balances.
Adjustment of Unpresented Cheques
When drawing up a Bank Reconciliation Statement with a debit balance as per the Bank Statement, the unpresented cheques should be added to the bank balance as per the company's books. This adjustment will increase the bank balance, bringing it closer to the bank balance as per the bank statement.
Reason for Adding Unpresented Cheques
Unpresented Cheques represent the company's liabilities, and hence, should be added to the bank balance as per the company's books. The company owes money to the bank for these cheques, and hence, the bank balance should be increased accordingly.
Conclusion
In conclusion, when drawing up a Bank Reconciliation Statement with a debit balance as per the Bank Statement, the unpresented cheques should be added to the bank balance as per the company's books. This adjustment will bring the bank balance closer to the bank balance as per the bank statement, helping the company identify any discrepancies and errors.

- Start with the Cash Book Overdraft: The initial overdraft as per the cash book is Rs. 10,500.
- Adjust for Bank Interest: The bank debited Rs. 3,500 for interest not known to the account holder. This increases the overdraft, so add Rs. 3,500.
- Adjust for Deposited but Uncredited Cheques: Cheques amounting to Rs. 7,500 are deposited but not yet credited by the bank. This also increases the overdraft, so add Rs. 7,500.
- Adjust for Issued but Unpresented Cheques: Cheques issued but not yet presented amount to Rs. 9,500. This reduces the overdraft, so subtract Rs. 9,500.
- Calculate Overdraft as per Pass Book:
\[
\text{Overdraft as per Pass Book} = 10,500 + 3,500 + 7,500 - 9,500 = 12,000

Calculation of Balance as per Pass Book:
Debit balance as per cash book = Rs. 2000
Cheques deposited but not cleared = Rs. 100
Cheques issued but not presented = Rs. 150
Bank allowed interest = Rs. 50
Bank collected dividend = Rs. 50
Adding the above transactions:
2000 + 100 - 150 + 50 + 50 = Rs. 2,050
Adjustment for Cheques:
Cheques issued but not presented = Rs. 150
Cheques deposited but not cleared = Rs. 100
Net adjustment for cheques = Rs. 50 (150 - 100)
Adding net adjustment for cheques to the balance as per pass book:
Rs. 2,050 + Rs. 50 = Rs. 2,100
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'D' - Rs. 2,150.
Debit balance as per cash book = Rs. 2000
Cheques deposited but not cleared = Rs. 100
Cheques issued but not presented = Rs. 150
Bank allowed interest = Rs. 50
Bank collected dividend = Rs. 50
Adding the above transactions:
2000 + 100 - 150 + 50 + 50 = Rs. 2,050
Adjustment for Cheques:
Cheques issued but not presented = Rs. 150
Cheques deposited but not cleared = Rs. 100
Net adjustment for cheques = Rs. 50 (150 - 100)
Adding net adjustment for cheques to the balance as per pass book:

**Answer:**
Direct deposits by customers are added when the balance as per Cash Book is the starting point. This is because direct deposits by customers are an inflow of cash into the business, which increases the cash balance. Adding these deposits to the starting balance of the Cash Book reflects the actual cash position of the business.
To understand this concept in detail, let's break down the answer:
**1. Cash Book:**
The Cash Book is a subsidiary book that records all cash and bank transactions of a business. It serves as a record of all cash inflows and outflows, including cash received from customers and cash paid to suppliers, employees, etc.
**2. Starting Point:**
The starting point refers to the opening balance of the Cash Book. It is the balance of cash on hand or in the bank at the beginning of a particular accounting period. This balance is carried forward from the previous period's closing balance.
**3. Direct Deposits by Customers:**
Direct deposits by customers refer to cash payments made directly into the business's bank account by its customers. These deposits could be in the form of payments for goods or services, loan repayments, or any other form of cash inflow from customers.
**4. Adding Direct Deposits:**
When the balance as per Cash Book is the starting point, direct deposits by customers are added. This means that the amount of direct deposits made by customers is added to the starting balance of the Cash Book.
Adding these deposits increases the cash balance in the Cash Book, reflecting the actual inflow of cash into the business. It ensures that the Cash Book accurately represents the cash position of the business at the beginning of the accounting period.
**5. Purpose of Adjustment:**
The purpose of this adjustment is to reconcile the Cash Book balance with the bank statement balance. By adding the direct deposits made by customers, the Cash Book balance will match the bank statement balance, which also includes these deposits.
**Conclusion:**
In summary, when the balance as per Cash Book is the starting point, direct deposits by customers are added. This adjustment ensures that the Cash Book accurately reflects the cash position of the business and reconciles it with the bank statement balance.

Explanation:
When preparing a Bank Reconciliation Statement (BRS), the starting point is the balance as per Pass Book, which is the balance shown in the bank statement. However, this balance may not be the same as the balance in the company's Cash Book due to various reasons, such as outstanding cheques, bank charges, interest, etc.
One of the reasons for the difference between the balances is uncollected cheques, which are cheques issued by the company but have not yet been presented for payment by the recipients. These cheques are also known as outstanding cheques or uncleared cheques.
When preparing a BRS, uncollected cheques are added to the balance as per Pass Book because they have already been recorded in the company's Cash Book but have not yet been debited by the bank. Therefore, they are part of the company's bank balance that is not reflected in the bank statement.
For example, if the balance as per Pass Book is Rs. 50,000 and there are uncollected cheques worth Rs. 10,000, the adjusted bank balance would be Rs. 60,000 (Rs. 50,000 + Rs. 10,000).
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A', i.e., uncollected cheques are added in BRS.

The errors that are not detected during Bank Reconciliation are:
1. Errors in recording transactions in the bank statement: Bank reconciliation only compares the bank statement with the company's records. If there are errors in recording transactions in the bank statement, such as duplicate entries or incorrect amounts, they will not be detected during bank reconciliation.
2. Errors in recording transactions in the company's books: Bank reconciliation compares the bank statement with the company's records to identify any discrepancies. However, if there are errors in recording transactions in the company's books, such as incorrect amounts or incorrect accounts, they may not be detected during bank reconciliation.
3. Errors in timing: Bank reconciliation compares the timing of transactions recorded in the bank statement with the company's records. However, if there are errors in timing, such as recording a transaction in the wrong period or recording a transaction on the wrong date, they may not be detected during bank reconciliation.
4. Errors in reconciliation process: Bank reconciliation is a process that involves comparing the bank statement with the company's records to identify any discrepancies. However, if there are errors in the reconciliation process itself, such as incorrect calculations or incorrect matching of transactions, they may not be detected during bank reconciliation.

Errors in journal entries or errors in the company's accounting records are not detected during bank reconciliation. Bank reconciliation only compares the bank statement with the company's cash account balance and identifies discrepancies between the two. It does not check the accuracy of individual transactions recorded in the company's accounting system.

| Bank Reconciliation Statement |
Introduction to Bank Reconciliation Statement
A Bank Reconciliation Statement is a statement prepared by a business to reconcile the difference between the bank balance as per the company's records and the bank balance as per the bank statement. It ensures that both balances are in agreement by comparing the financial transactions recorded by the business with those recorded by the bank.
Debit Balance as per the Bank Statement
When starting with a debit balance as per the bank statement, it means that the bank statement shows a higher balance than the company's records. This can happen due to various reasons such as outstanding checks, deposits in transit, bank errors, or other reconciling items.
Unpresented Cheques
Unpresented cheques refer to checks issued by the company that have not yet been presented to the bank for payment. These checks are recorded in the company's books as payments but have not yet been deducted from the bank balance.
Addition of Unpresented Cheques
To reconcile the difference between the bank balance as per the company's records and the bank statement, the unpresented cheques need to be added to the bank balance as per the bank statement. This adjustment is made because the bank statement does not reflect the deduction of these checks, resulting in a higher balance.
Reasoning behind Adding Unpresented Cheques
The reason for adding the unpresented cheques is to align the bank balance as per the bank statement with the company's records. Since the company has already recorded these checks as payments, they need to be added to the bank balance to reflect the correct position.
Example
Let's say the bank balance as per the bank statement is $10,000, and there are unpresented cheques of $3,000. When preparing the bank reconciliation statement, the unpresented cheques of $3,000 will be added to the bank balance, resulting in a reconciled balance of $13,000.
Conclusion
In conclusion, when starting with a debit balance as per the bank statement, the unpresented cheques should be added to the bank balance to reconcile the difference between the bank balance as per the company's records and the bank statement. This adjustment ensures that both balances are in agreement and reflects the correct financial position of the business.

Bank Reconciliation Statement Treatment for Bank Charges Reversed but not Communicated to Client
When preparing a Bank Reconciliation Statement, the accountant must reconcile the bank balance as per the bank statement with the bank balance as per the books of accounts. In this scenario, the bank charged Rs. 1,000 as bank charges to a client, which was recorded in the books. However, the bank later realized the error and reversed the charges without informing the client.
To arrive at the balance as per the bank statement, the following treatment must be applied:
Add Rs. 1,000
- The bank charges were reversed by the bank, which means that the bank balance as per the bank statement will be higher by Rs. 1,000.
- However, since the reversal was not communicated to the client, the bank balance as per the books of accounts will not reflect this change.
- Therefore, to reconcile the two balances, the accountant must add Rs. 1,000 to the bank balance as per the books of accounts.
- This will result in the balance as per the bank statement and the balance as per the books of accounts being reconciled.
In summary, when bank charges are reversed but not communicated to the client, the accountant must add the amount of the reversal to the bank balance as per the books of accounts to arrive at the balance as per the bank statement.

Overdraft as per the cash book means that the amount is overdrawn.A cheque of Rs 500 is deposited into the bank but not recorded in the cash book means that the balance of cash book shows a higher overdraft balance because if the entry of Rs 500 was made then the overdraft balance will get reduced by Rs 500.This amount is credited by the bank thus overdraft as per pass book stands decreased,therefore in order to decrease the overdraft balance as per cash book we will deduct Rs 500 from the overdraft balance as per the cash book.

Treatment of Undercasting of Receipt Side of Cash Book
When the balance as per Pass Book is the starting point, the treatment of undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book will be deducted from the balance as per Pass Book. This is because undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book means that some of the cash received has not been recorded in the Cash Book, resulting in a lower balance as per Cash Book. As a result, when we start with the balance as per Pass Book, we need to adjust it for the undercast amount so that the correct balance is reflected.
Steps for Deducting Undercasting of Receipt Side of Cash Book
The following steps can be followed to deduct the undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book:
Step 1: Identify the undercast amount
The first step is to identify the undercast amount on the receipt side of the Cash Book. This can be done by comparing the entries in the Cash Book with the bank statement or Pass Book.
Step 2: Deduct the undercast amount from the balance as per Pass Book
Once the undercast amount has been identified, it should be deducted from the balance as per Pass Book. This will give us the correct balance as per Cash Book.
Step 3: Record the adjustment in the Cash Book
The adjustment for the undercast amount should be recorded in the Cash Book. This can be done by writing a narration explaining the adjustment and the reason for it.
Example
Suppose the balance as per Pass Book is Rs. 50,000. On comparing the Cash Book with the Pass Book, it is found that a receipt of Rs. 5,000 has been undercast in the Cash Book. The treatment of undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book will be as follows:
- Deduct the undercast amount of Rs. 5,000 from the balance as per Pass Book:
Balance as per Pass Book = Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 45,000
- Record the adjustment in the Cash Book with a narration:
Cash Book:
Receipt side
To adjust undercast of Rs. 5,000
By deducting the undercast amount, the correct balance as per Cash Book of Rs. 45,000 is reflected, and the adjustment is recorded in the Cash Book.
When the balance as per Pass Book is the starting point, the treatment of undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book will be deducted from the balance as per Pass Book. This is because undercasting of receipt side of Cash Book means that some of the cash received has not been recorded in the Cash Book, resulting in a lower balance as per Cash Book. As a result, when we start with the balance as per Pass Book, we need to adjust it for the undercast amount so that the correct balance is reflected.

- Deduct the undercast amount of Rs. 5,000 from the balance as per Pass Book:
Balance as per Pass Book = Rs. 50,000 - Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 45,000
- Record the adjustment in the Cash Book with a narration:
Cash Book:
Receipt side
To adjust undercast of Rs. 5,000
By deducting the undercast amount, the correct balance as per Cash Book of Rs. 45,000 is reflected, and the adjustment is recorded in the Cash Book.

Explanation:
The bank column of a cash book shows the balance of the trader's account with the bank. On a particular date, the bank column of the cash book shows a credit balance of Rs. 7,900. This means that the trader has deposited Rs. 7,900 in the bank account.
However, the bank statement shows a debit balance of Rs. 10,300. This means that the bank has paid out Rs. 10,300 from the trader's account as per the standing orders.
Therefore, the actual balance of the trader's account with the bank on that particular date is a debit balance of Rs. 10,300. This balance will be shown on the liabilities side of the statement of affairs because it represents an amount that the trader owes to the bank.
Hence, the correct answer is option B, i.e., the bank balance will be shown on the liabilities side of the statement of affairs as Rs. 10,300.

Srsps answered |
The correct option is A.
Overdraft as per cash book is 20500.
Since 50000 is received by the bank, it is recorded in pass book but not in cash book. So it has to be added in cash book. Also cheques deposited are returned unpaid. So they will be subtracted. So balance as per pass book= -20500+50000-25000=4500 (credit)

To get the balance as per the cash book, the following items will be deducted from the balance as per the passbook:
a) Interest given by the bank
Interest given by the bank is an income for the account holder and needs to be deducted from the balance as per the passbook to get the correct balance as per the cash book. When the bank pays interest on the account holder's savings or fixed deposit, it increases the balance as per the passbook. However, since this interest is not recorded in the cash book, it needs to be deducted.
Example: If the passbook shows a balance of $10,000 and the bank has credited $500 as interest, the balance as per the cash book would be $9,500 ($10,000 - $500).
b) Interest charged by the bank
Interest charged by the bank is an expense for the account holder and is not recorded in the cash book. Therefore, it does not affect the balance as per the cash book and should not be deducted.
c) Cheque deposited but not cleared
Cheques deposited but not cleared are already recorded in the cash book as receipts. Therefore, they do not need to be deducted again to get the balance as per the cash book.
d) Payment made by the bank under standing instructions
Payments made by the bank under standing instructions are already recorded in the cash book as payments. Therefore, they do not need to be deducted again to get the balance as per the cash book.
In summary, to get the balance as per the cash book, only interest given by the bank needs to be deducted from the balance as per the passbook. Other items such as interest charged by the bank, cheques deposited but not cleared, and payments made by the bank under standing instructions do not affect the balance as per the cash book.

Explanation:
When the balance as per Pass Book is the starting point, direct payment by bank can be treated in the following ways in the bank reconciliation statement:
The correct answer is option A, where direct payments made by the bank are added in the bank reconciliation statement. This is because when the balance as per Pass Book is taken as the starting point, any direct payments made by the bank would not be reflected in the Pass Book balance. Therefore, to reconcile the difference between the Pass Book balance and the bank statement balance, these direct payments need to be added back.
In summary, when the balance as per Pass Book is the starting point, direct payments made by the bank are added in the bank reconciliation statement to reconcile the difference between the Pass Book balance and the bank statement balance.

Explanation:
The correct answer is A: added in the bank reconciliation statement. Here's why:
1. Bank Reconciliation Statement: The bank reconciliation statement is prepared to reconcile the differences between the bank's balance as per the passbook and the balance as per the company's records.
2. Uncollected Cheques: Uncollected cheques are the cheques issued by the company but have not yet been presented for payment at the bank.
3. Treatment in Bank Reconciliation Statement: When the balance as per the passbook is taken as the starting point, uncollected cheques need to be added to the passbook balance in the bank reconciliation statement.
4. Reason for Adding: The uncollected cheques represent the company's funds that have been deducted from the passbook balance but have not yet been debited to the company's bank account. Therefore, they need to be added back to the passbook balance to reconcile the two balances.
To summarize, uncollected cheques are added in the bank reconciliation statement when the balance as per the passbook is the starting point.

A debit balance in the depositor's account refers to a situation where the amount of funds withdrawn or debited from the account exceeds the available balance. In other words, it indicates that the depositor has overdrawn their account and owes money to the bank. This can happen when checks or electronic payments are made without sufficient funds in the account to cover the transactions. The bank may charge an overdraft fee and the depositor is required to repay the negative balance.

The given question relates to the reconciliation of the cash book and the pass book of ABC Enterprises. Reconciliation is the process of matching the balances of the cash book and the pass book to ensure that they are in agreement.
Given Information:
- Debit balance as per cash book on 31st March 2012 = Rs. 1,500
- Cheques deposited but not cleared = Rs. 100
- Cheques issued but not presented = Rs. 150
- Bank interest allowed = Rs. 50
- Dividend collected on behalf of ABC Enterprises = Rs. 50
To find the balance as per the pass book, we need to consider the adjustments required to reconcile the cash book balance with the pass book balance.
Adjustments for Reconciliation:
1. Cheques deposited but not cleared:
- These cheques have been recorded in the cash book but have not yet been cleared by the bank.
- As per the cash book, the balance is higher by the amount of these cheques.
- Therefore, we need to deduct the amount of these cheques from the cash book balance.
- Deduct: Rs. 100
2. Cheques issued but not presented:
- These cheques have been issued by ABC Enterprises but have not yet been presented to the bank for payment.
- As per the cash book, the balance is lower by the amount of these cheques.
- Therefore, we need to add the amount of these cheques to the cash book balance.
- Add: Rs. 150
3. Bank interest allowed:
- This is an income for ABC Enterprises and has been collected by the bank on their behalf.
- As per the cash book, this income has not been recorded.
- Therefore, we need to add the amount of bank interest to the cash book balance.
- Add: Rs. 50
4. Dividend collected on behalf of ABC Enterprises:
- This is an income for ABC Enterprises and has been collected by the bank on their behalf.
- As per the cash book, this income has not been recorded.
- Therefore, we need to add the amount of dividend collected to the cash book balance.
- Add: Rs. 50
Calculation:
Debit balance as per cash book on 31st March 2012 = Rs. 1,500
Less: Cheques deposited but not cleared (Rs. 100)
Add: Cheques issued but not presented (Rs. 150)

Explanation:
The bank balance as on 31.3.13 is shown in the Balance Sheet as a liability. The two possible ways of showing this liability are:
1. As Bank Overdraft
2. As Cash at Bank
In this case, the balance of the bank book is Rs. 7,074 (Credit) and balance as per bank statement is Rs. 3,159 (Debit). This means that the bank account is overdrawn by Rs. 3,159.
The difference between the two balances is due to cheques issued but not presented for payment. This means that the bank has not yet paid the cheques that were issued by the company. Therefore, the company's bank balance is lower than what is recorded in the bank book.
As per the definition of Bank Overdraft, it is the amount by which a company's bank account is overdrawn. In this case, the bank account is overdrawn by Rs. 3,159. Therefore, the bank balance as on 31.3.13 will be shown in the Balance Sheet as Bank Overdraft of Rs. 3,159.
Hence, the correct answer is option 'C'. As Bank overdraft Rs. 7,074.

The correct option is B.
Since the starting point is balance as per cash book, we are making changes in cash book. Since the cheques are not collected they are not included in pass book but are added in cash book. As a result balance of cash book is more than pass book by that amount. So it should be subtracted to match the pass book.

Bank Reconciliation Statement
When preparing a Bank Reconciliation Statement, if you start with a debit balance as per the Cash Book, cheques issued but not presented within the period should be added. Here is a detailed explanation:
1. Bank Reconciliation Statement:
A Bank Reconciliation Statement is a document that compares the balances of the cash book (maintained by the company) and the bank statement (provided by the bank). It helps in identifying any discrepancies and reconciling the differences between the two balances.
2. Debit Balance as per Cash Book:
If the starting balance in the Cash Book is a debit balance, it means that the company has overdrawn or has issued more cheques than the available cash balance.
3. Cheques Issued but Not Presented:
When cheques are issued by the company but not presented to the bank within the period under consideration, these cheques are still considered as outstanding payments. They have not yet been deducted from the bank balance.
4. Treatment of Outstanding Cheques:
To reconcile the debit balance as per the Cash Book, the outstanding cheques need to be adjusted. They should be added back to the Cash Book balance because they reduce the actual bank balance available to the company.
5. Answer:
Therefore, when starting with a debit balance as per the Cash Book, the correct treatment for cheques issued but not presented within the period is to add them back. Hence, the answer is A: Added.

- The bank overdraft as per the Cash Book is Rs. 8,720.
- Cheques amounting to Rs. 690 were deposited but not yet credited by the bank until 31st May.
- These cheques will reduce the bank overdraft once credited.
- To find the overdraft as per the Pass Book, add the uncredited amount to the Cash Book overdraft because the bank hasn’t recognized these deposits yet.
- Calculation: Rs. 8,720 + Rs. 690 = Rs. 9,410.
- Therefore, the bank overdraft as per the Pass Book is Rs. 9,410.
- Correct answer: C: Rs. 9,410.
