Bank Reconciliation Statement \u2013 CA Foundation Accounts Study Material<\/h2>\n

Question 1.
\nMeaning of Bank Reconciliation Statement
\nAnswer:
\nMeaning of Bank Reconciliation Statement:
\nA bank a\/ c or bank book is maintained by us to record the transactions with bank. Similarly Bank maintains our a\/c in their books. A copy of which is given to us known as Bank statement or passbook. All the transactions recorded by us will be recorded by bank also, therefore normally the balance shown by the two books must be same and should be opposite balance. But practically this balances at a particular time (i.e. on a particular date) doesn\u2019t tally because there is always some time gap between recording of the same transaction by us and by bank.<\/p>\n

To find out the causes of difference, we prepare a Bank Reconciliation Statement (BRS). The items which comes in Reconciliation statement, can be grouped in following 4 categories.
\n\u2192 Items recorded by bank but not recorded in our books.
\nExample : a. Bank charges charged by Bank b. Interest credited by Bank<\/p>\n

\u2192 Recorded by us but not recorded by bank. (Bank will record at a latter date).
\nExample : a. Cheque deposited but not yet realised b. Cheque issued but not yet paid by Bank<\/p>\n

\u2192 Errors committed in our books (i.e. in cash book – bank column).
\nExample : a. Totalling, balancing error b. Cheque deposited & returned dishonoured but not yet reversed.<\/p>\n

\u2192 Errors committed by bank (i.e. in pass book).
\nExample : a. Totalling, balancing error b. An item of some other person debited or credited to our a\/c.<\/p>\n
