Question
On October 31, 2018, Damon Company’s general ledger shows a checking account balance of $8,454. The company’s cash receipts for the month total $74,700, of which $71,390 has been deposited in the bank. In addition, the company has written checks for $72,524, of which $71,324 has been processed by the bank.
The bank statement reveals an ending balance of $13,114 and includes the following items not yet recorded by Damon: bank service fees of $340, note receivable collected by bank of $6,900, and interest earned on the account balance plus from the note of $1,270. After closer inspection, Damon realizes that the bank incorrectly charged the company’s account $1,060 for an automatic withdrawal that should have been charged to another customer’s account. The bank agrees to the error.
