How is Cash Reconciliation Prepared in this case of Cash Verification
-a-
When a cashier gives advance to an employee, he gets “I owe you” form signed by the employee. The employee has to submit bills, or return back the money within a certain period. If he fails to do so, the amount is debited in his account by passing the entry as:
Employee a/c Dr
To Cash a/c
Hence balance of cash a/c as per Tally may not match, with actual cash. Hence reconciliation is prepared in the following format:
Balance of cash a/c as per Tally ____________________________
Less: I owe you forms ____________________________
Actual cash balance ____________________________
If actual cash balance does not match, then cash has not been handled properly.
