Reconciliation of Bank Balances Example
To illustrate, Nugget Mining Company’s books show a cash balance at the Denver National Bank on November 30,
2022, of $20,502. The bank statement covering the month of November shows an ending balance of $22,190. An
examination of Nugget’s accounting records and November bank statement identified the following reconciling items.
1. A deposit of $3,680 that Nugget mailed November 30 does not appear on the bank statement.
2. Checks written in November but not charged to the November bank statement are:
Check #7327 $. 150
#7348 4,820
#7349 31
3. Nugget has not yet recorded the $600 of interest collected by the bank November 20 on Sequoia Co. bonds
held by the bank for Nugget.
4. Bank service charges of $18 are not yet recorded on Nugget’s books.
5. The bank returned one of Nugget’s customer’s checks for $220 with the bank statement, marked “NSF.” The
bank treated this bad check as a disbursement.
6. Nugget discovered that it incorrectly recorded check #7322, written in November for $131 in payment of an
account payable, as $311.
7. A check for Nugent Oil Co. in the amount of $175 that the bank incorrectly charged to Nugget accompanied the
statement.
