Juliet Company maintains a checking account at the Davao Bank. At July 31, selected data
from the ledger balance and the bank statement are as follows:
Cash in Bank

July Receipts
July Credits
July Disbursement
July Debits

76,900
.
P 22,700

74,740
P 24,530

Analysis of the bank data reveals that the credits consist of P78,000 of July deposits and a
credit memorandum of P2,070 for collection of a P2,000 note plus interest revenue of P70.
The July debits per bank consist of checks cleared, P74,700 and a debit memorandum of
P40 for printing additional company checks.
You also discover the following errors involving July checks: (1) a check for P230 to a
creditor on account that cleared the bank in July was journalized and posted as P320, and
(2) a salary check to an employee for P255 was recorded by the bank for P155.
The June 30 bank reconciliation contained only two reconciling items: deposits in transit,
P1,000 and outstanding checks, P2,600.
Assume that the interest on the note has been accrued.

Problem 21
Dema-ala Company is very profitable small business. It has not, however, given much
consideration to internal control. For example, in an attempt to keep clerical and office
expenses to a minimum, the company has combined the jobs of cashier and bookkeeper.
As a result, Maria handles all cash receipts, keeps the accounting records, and prepares the
monthly bank reconciliation.
The balance per bank statement on October 31, 2006, was P73,520. Outstanding checks
were: No. 62 for P507, No. 183 for P600, No. 284 for P1,103, No. 862 for P762.84, No. 863
for P907.20, No. 864 for P661.12. Included with the statement was a credit memorandum
of P800 indicating the collection of a note receivable for Dema-ala Company by the bank on
October 25. Dema-ala Company has not recorded this memorandum.
The companys ledger showed one cash account with a balance of P87,570.88. The balance
included undeposited cash on hand. Because of the lack of internal control, Maria took for
personal use all the undeposited receipts in excess of P15,182.04. She then prepared the
following bank reconciliation in an effort to conceal her theft of cash.

Problem 22
On December 15 of the current year, Darwin, who owns Herald Corporation, asks you to
investigate the cash-handling activities in his firm. He thinks that an employee might be
stealing funds. I have no proof he say, but Im fairly certain that the November 30
undeposited receipts amounted to more than P6,000 although the November 30 bank
reconciliation prepared by the cashier shows only P3,619.20. Also, the November bank
reconciliation doesnt show several checks that have been outstanding for a long time. The
cashier told me that these checks neednt appear on the reconciliation because he has
notified the bank to stop payment on them and he had made the necessary payment on the
books.

At your request, Darwin showed you the following November 30 bank reconciliation
prepared by the cashier.

You discover that the P600 unrecorded bank credit represents a note collected by the bank
on Darwins behalf. It appears in the deposits column of the November bank statement.
Your investigation also reveals that the October 31 bank reconciliation showed three checks
that had been outstanding longer than 10 months: No. 1432 for P300, No. 1458 for
P233.45, and No. 1512 for P126.55.
You also discover that these items were never added back into the cash account in the
books.
In confirming that the checks shown on the cashiers November 30 bank
reconciliation were outstanding on that date, you discover that check No. 2353 was actually
a payment of P829.16 and had been recorded on the books for the amount.
To confirm the amount of undeposited receipts at November 30, you request a bank
statement for December 1-12 (called a cut-off bank statement). This indeed shows a
December 1 deposit of P3,619.20.

Problem 23
The bank statement for the account of ARNOLD COMPANY at December 31, 2006 showed a
credit balance of P20,000, while the companys ledger balance of the cash account as of
November 30, 2006 was a debit of P40,000. During December, 2006, the ledger showed
two postings, a debit of P60,000 and a credit of P39,000 from the Cash Receipts and Check
Disbursements Journal, respectively.
Your examination revealed that the cash column of the receipts book was underfooted by
P6,400. The receipts book recorded only the collections from customers and did not include
a bank credit in December for P8,000, representing loan proceeds of a P10,000 promissory
note.
An examination of the customers subsidiary ledgers showed total credits to individual
accounts amounting to P70,400. The December Check Disbursements Journal which was
overfooted by P500, records only the checks issued by the company. In the month of
December, 2006, the bank charged ARNOLD COMPANY for P5,000 representing a loan
guaranteed by the client but was dishonored by the maker, the company vice-president.
The December bank service charges of P1,200 were erroneously charged by the bank to the
account of Ronald Company. The bank made the correction in January, 2007. The
outstanding checks as of December 31, 2006 amounted to P5,600.
On the morning of January 2, 2007, a cash count conducted produced the following:
Bills and coins
