Hello guys, I am back with another video but before starting let me introduce myself first.
[4]
I am lavish Gupta and in this video we are going to study Bank Reconciliation Statement.
[10]
So, Let's start
[13]
So, in this video we are going to study three things which are What is Bank reconciliation
[19]
Statement?
[20]
How to Prepare it and why we prepare it? and also an Example of Bank Reconciliation
[25]
Statement, so you guys can easily understand it.
[29]
To know about what is Bank Reconciliation statement, you guys should have some basic
[33]
knowledge of two things which are Pass Book and Cash Book which is also known as Bank
[39]
book.
[40]
Now as you guys are studying Accountancy instead of A, B, C, let me assume that you guys are
[47]
grown enough to know what a pass book is.
[50]
But still I know that there may be some people among you guys who doesn't know what a pass
[55]
book is because in India still many families doesn't have a bank account.
[59]
So, yeah for those who doesn't know, A pass book is the record of deposit and withdrawals
[65]
of a person made with the bank.
[68]
That is when you deposit money in the bank, it gets credited in your pass book and when
[73]
you withdraw money out of your bank, it gets debited from your pass book.
[77]
And this pass book is maintained by the Bank.
[80]
Okay, so this is what a pass book is.
[82]
Now, the next thing is Bank Book which is also known as Cash Book as I previously said
[88]
and it is usually the Bank Column of the Cash Book.
[92]
So, cash book or Bank book is usually studied before studying Bank Reconciliation statement.
[97]
Therefore, most of you guys may already know about it.
[102]
For those who don't, a cash book is a book in which receipt and payments of money are
[107]
recorded.
[108]
But unlike pass book, which is prepared by bank, cash book is prepared by the customer
[115]
of the bank or we can say it is prepared by the business.
[121]
Now Cash Book has two column, one is Cash column and other is Bank column, but in bank
[127]
Reconciliation Statement, we are only concerned with Bank column because Bank Reconciliation
[132]
is only about those transactions which are related to Bank.
[137]
So, from this we can say that both Pass book and Cash book are the statements of receipts
[142]
and payment but the only difference is that Pass Book is prepared by the bank and the
[148]
Cash book or Bank book is prepared by the customer of the bank i.e Business.
[152]
Now, the thing is that most of the time the balance of pass book and the balance of cash
[158]
book doesn't match, because of which we prepare Bank Reconciliation Statement.
[163]
So, we can say that Bank Reconciliation statement is a statement which explains the difference
[169]
among balances of a pass book and a bank book.
[173]
Now as i said sometimes pass book and cash book doesn't match, but the question is why?
[182]
Let's understand
[183]
See, as I said Bank book is prepared by Bank which is usually correct and the cash book
[189]
is prepared by the customer of the bank or the business which can commit errors, so sometimes
[196]
because of the error committed by the customer or the business in recording the transactions
[201]
in the bank column of the cash book, there comes a difference among the balances of cash
[208]
book and pass book.
[210]
So, the reason of mismatch is Error in recording.
[216]
Another reason of mismatch is Difference in timing,
[219]
For example- When we deposit a cheque in the bank, we immediately Debit the cash book with
[224]
the amount of cheque....but it takes time by the bank to deposit the cheque in the account
[231]
and if we check the balance of pass book and bank book during such time, there will be
[236]
a mismatch.
[237]
Yet another reason is No information regarding the transaction...
[240]
For example - When bank pays Interest, it credits the pass book but we do not know about
[246]
such Interest until we check the pass book, so we do not record it in the Bank book or
[252]
in the Bank column of the Cash Book which results in Mismatch.
[257]
Now, let's study how to prepare Bank Reconciliation statement which is also known as BRS with
[265]
a problem.
[266]
So, here is our problem where it is stated Prepare Bank Reconciliation Statement of ABC
[272]
Ltd. from the information given below.
[277]
Let's show you guys how to solve it.
[278]
Here is the format of Bank Reconciliation Statement, and I want to tell you guys that
[284]
there is no standard format of BRS, so you guys can prepare it anyway, but this is still
[289]
the best format according to me.
[291]
So, we always start with either the balance of cash book or the balance of pass book...
[297]
It depends upon the problem.
[299]
As you can see in this problem, we are given Balance as per Cash book, so will start with
[308]
this.
[309]
Balance as per Cash Book Rs. 25,000
[314]
Before going to next step, you guys need to know what is the motive behind preparing Bank
[319]
Reconciliation Statement.
[321]
For example - Trading Account is prepared to know Gross profit i.e the end result of
[326]
Trading account is either Gross profit or gross loss.
[329]
Similarily end result of Profit and Loss Account is either Net Profit or Net Loss.
[334]
So, the question is what is the motive behind preparing BRS, what will be the end result
[340]
of preparing BRS?
[341]
What are we trying to find here?
[345]
And the answer is as I previously said we are trying to find the differences between
[349]
Cash Book and Pass Book and we will reverse them so that if we start with the balance
[354]
of Cash Book, the end result will be the balance as per Pass book and if we start with the
[365]
Balance as per Pass book, the end result will be Balance as per Cash Book.
[370]
Therefore, the 2nd step will be to reverse the entries which results in the difference
[375]
among balances of pass book and Cash book.
[378]
So, let's continue.
[380]
So, our 2nd transaction is Withdrawn Rs.2000 from bank but recorded as Rs. 2500 in Cash
[386]
Book.
[387]
That means we have recorded 500 extra in Cash book which results in the lower balance of
[393]
Cash book as compared to Pass book because as per pass book we have withdrawn only Rs
[399]
2,000 but as per cash book we have withdrawn Rs 2,500.
[403]
So, we have deducted 500 extra from the Cash book.
[407]
So, to reverse the entry, we will add this 500 in the Cash book.
[411]
Therefore, Add extra amount deducted from Cash Book Rs.500
[415]
I hope you got it.
[418]
If not, nothing to worry you can go a little back and watch this step again or you can
[423]
continue and understand this concept in next entries.
[427]
Now, the third entry is Interest given by bank Rs.50 and not recorded in Cash Book.
[433]
When bank gives interest on our money, it results in the increase of balance in the
[439]
pass book.
[440]
But the account holder will only come to know of such Interest, when he see the pass book,
[446]
therefore the balance of cash book becomes less than the balance of pass book.
[450]
So, to make the balance equal, we will record the Interest given by the bank in the Cash
[455]
book.
[456]
Therefore, add Interest given by the Bank Rs.50
[458]
Now the 4th transaction is Cheque received from Mohan deposited into the bank not yet
[466]
cleared Rs.1000
[468]
In this transaction, ABC ltd. has received cheque from Mohan and deposited it into the
[474]
bank which is not yet cleared as you guys may know that sometimes bank takes time to
[479]
clear cheques because of various reasons.
[482]
So, here when ABC ltd. saw the pass book, the cheque was not cleared although it was
[488]
not aware of it and therefore recorded it in the Cash book which results in the difference
[492]
between Pass Book and Cash book as the balance of Cash book got increases by the amount of
[499]
cheque.
[500]
Therefore, we will reverse the transaction and will deduct such amount from the Cash
[504]
book so that balance of both books gets equal.
[508]
Therefore, Less Cheque received from Mohan not yet cleared Rs.1000
[515]
Now the 5th transaction is Cheque issued to Ram not yet presented for payment.
[519]
Rs 1500
[521]
In this transaction, ABC ltd. has given a cheque to Ram , therefore it will assume that
[527]
Ram has presented it for payment and the money is deducted from the bank.
[533]
Therefore it has already deducted the amount of cheque from the cash book.
[537]
But when ABC LTD. sees the pass book, it comes to know that tha cheque is still not presented
[543]
for payment, therefore it has to reverse the transaction in the cash book.
[549]
As it has already deducted Rs.1500 from the Cash book, now it has to add it back.
[556]
Therefore, Add Cheque issued to Ram not yet presented for the payment.
[563]
Rs.1500
[564]
Next entry is Deposited Rs.5000 in bank but recorded as Rs 3500 in Cash book.
[571]
Here in this entry ABC ltd has deposited Rs 5000 in bank but wrongly recorded it as Rs.3500
[580]
which results in the difference between the balances of both books.
[585]
Therefore, to balance the both books we have to add Rs 1500 in the cash book.
[591]
Therefore, Add Less amount recorded in Cash book.
[594]
Rs.1500
[595]
Now the 7th and last transaction is Cheque received entered twice in Cash book Rs.2000
[602]
So, when we receive cheque from someone, it increase the balance of both pass book and
[609]
cash book.
[610]
But here, we have added such amount in the cash book 2 times, therefore, we have to deduct
[618]
Rs.2000 from the Cash book , so as to make the balances of both books equal.
[624]
Therefore, Less Cheque entered twice in Cash book Rs.2,000
[629]
Now what we have to do is to add all these transactions first and then add the amount
[637]
into the Balance as per Cash Book.
[641]
So after adding all these, we get Rs.3,550 which when added to Rs.25,000 gets equal to
[650]
Rs.28,550
[651]
Now we have to subtract the below amount from this 28,550 and after subtracting
[672]
we get Rs.25550 which is our balance as per pass book.
[678]
That's all.
[681]
Hope you guys got it.
[683]
If not , do tell me what else I should explain here and I will make a new video for that.
