balance in my accounting records” he tells you. So you explainthat a bank reconciliation is a tool used
to balance the bank statement to the accounting books. He givesyou his bank statement for June, 2014
(shown below). The general ledger shows a balance for theaccount cash of $14,319.00 on June 30,
2014 (detail transactions below). Bill’s business only has onechecking account and no other cash
accounts.
Bill has begun to have problems collecting some of his creditaccounts and is considering writing off a
couple of customer account balances. He asks you how these baddebts should be recorded and has
asked you to begin recording bad debt using the allowance methodfor June, 2014. Selected account
balances at the end of June, 2014 are:
Sales $7,200
Sales on Credit $2,900
Accounts Receivable $3,200
As a result of increased focus on collecting accountsreceivable, Bill has decided to extend credit for one
customer, Alan Jones, who owes Bill’s Lawn Care $500. Bill andAlan have agreed to a 90-day 6% note
for $500 issued on June 5, 2014.
