Document Summary
Bank reconciliation: process of using both the bank statement and the cash accounts of a business to determine the appropriate amount of cash in a bank account, after taking into consideration delays or errors in processing cash transactions. Key internal control because it provides independent verification of all cash transactions that the bank has processed for the company. Check is cleared when financial institution contacts the check writer"s bank, which in turn withdraws the amount of the check from the check writer"s account and reports it as a deduction on the bank statement. Deposits are listed on the bank statement in the order in which the bank processes them. Other transactions the bank statement is presented from the bank"s point of view. Banks typically explain the reasons for these increases (credits) and decreases (debits) with symbols or in a short memo, appropriately called a credit memo or debit memo.
