ACCOUNTING IN THE REAL WORLD
At Hard Rock Café, customers use cash or credit cards to make purchases. What control problems may occur when employees accept cash for a sale?
Answer: A dishonest employee may attempt to take some cash. Or, an employee could accidentally give too much cash back in change. The cash needs to be deposited in a bank. If it is known that there are large amounts of cash on hand, the business might be robbed.
INTERNET RESEARCH ACTIVITY Banks offer many services, including savings
accounts and loans. If you have a savings account with a bank, the bank pays you interest on the money in the account.
If you take out a loan, you pay interest to the bank on the money you owe.
Go to a homepage for a bank of your choice. Wells Fargo Capital One Bank of America
INTERNET ACTIVITY Find the range of interest the bank offers for
its saving accounts. Find the range of interest charged by the
bank on an auto loan. Compare the two rates.
Why does the bank charge more interest on loans than it pays on saving accounts?
Answer: The difference in interest rates is basically how a bank is profitable. The bank charges more for loans than it pays for saving accounts.
INTRODUCTION TO LESSON 5.1 In accounting, money is referred to as cash.
Most business make major payments via check.
Small payments for items such as postage or supplies may be made from a cash fund.
Remember the importance of good controls for cash. Cash transactions occur more frequently than other types of transactions, and cash is easy to transfer from one person to another.

LET ME EXPLAIN It is important to accurately record additions
to and subtractions from a bank account. Lets take a look at how to prepare a deposit
slip and a check stub……

DEPOSITING CASH page 119

DEPOSIT RECORDED ON A CHECK STUB page 119
After the deposit is recorded on the check stub, a checkbook subtotal is calculated. The balance brought forward on Check Stub no. 1 is Zero. The previous balance, $0.00, plus the deposit, $5000.00, equals the subtotal, $5000.00.
Cash receipts are journalized at the time cash is received. Later the cash receipts are deposited in the checking account. Therefore, no journal entry is needed for deposits because the cash receipts have already been journalized.
ENDORSEMENTSEndorsement a signature or stamp on the back of a check transferring ownership. (p. 120)
Blank endorsement an endorsement consisting only of the endorser’s signature. (p. 120)Special endorsement an endorsement indicating a new owner of a check. (p. 120)Restrictive endorsement an endorsement restricting further transfer of a check’s ownership. (p. 120)
ENDORSEMENTS
•Should be written in ink •Have space limitations on the back of a check for an endorsement•Should be signed exactly as the person’s name appears on the front of the check.•Know that there are similarities and differences in the three kinds of endorsements you are about to see.•The most common bank endorsement is the blank endorsement•Restrictive endorsements should always be used if mailing a deposit to the bank or if endorsing a check before going to a bank.

COMPLETED CHECK STUBS AND CHECK
•The check stub should always be completed before writing out the check•Writing the purpose of the check on the check stub is a good record keeping practice•Remember that numbers should be written very close on a check so no one can change the amount•Remember that if amounts in words and in figures are not the same, a bank may pay only the amount in words•A check should be signed as the signature appears on the signature card. It is important to write the signature the same each time.

LESSON 5-2Bank ReconciliationACCOUNTING
OBJECTIVES Identify accounting concepts and practices
related to using a checking account. Prepare business papers related to using a
checking account. Reconcile a bank statement
PEOPLE WHO HAVE CHECKING ACCOUNTS. People make errors on their checking account
all the time. How do they find out about their errors? In this lesson you will learn how to find errors
that you make as well as find errors that the bank may make.
PREVIEW OF LESSON 5.2 New Term
Bank Statement Bank statement a report of deposits, withdrawals,
and bank balances sent to a depositor by a bank.
This lesson will discuss a bank reconciliation and special entries necessary for a business checking account.
EXPLANATION Using a checking account was introduced
earlier in this chapter. The bank periodically sends a report of
deposits , withdrawals, and the bank balance to the depositor.
The bank’s records and a depositor’s records may differ and both may still be correct?
?????????
FOUR REASONS WHY THIS MAY HAPPEN 1. A Service Charge may not have been
recorded in the depositor’s business records. 2. Outstanding deposits may be recorded in
the depositor’s records but not on a bank statement.
3. Outstanding checks may be recorded in the depositor’s records but not on a bank statement.
4. A depositor may have made math or recording errors.
IT IS IMPORTANT TO ALWAYS ANALYZE THE BANK STATEMENT EACH TIME IT IS RECEIVED.
LESSON 5-2
BANK STATEMENT page 124
Deposits, Checks, and Service Charges should be verified!
•When a bank statement is received, canceled checks can accompany it.•Canceled checks should be compared with check stubs and a check mark placed on each stub for canceled checks
Follow the same procedure for deposits!

JOURNALIZING A BANK SERVICE CHARGE page 127
The service charge MUST be recorded in the journal and posted to the cash account so that the cash account will also be up to date.
The company prepared a memo as a source document to support the journal entryNo Check is written for the amount of the service charge. The bank has already deducted it from the account.

LESSON 5-3Dishonored Checks and Electronic BankingAccounting
FRIDAY WARM UP CASES FOR CRITICAL THINKING PAGE 143.
Look at cases one and two and answer the questions provided.
We will go over together once finished.
FRIDAY WARM UP CASES FOR CRITICAL THINKING.
Case one: Ms. Merker is following the better procedure. Even though Ms. Velez has a relatively small checking account balance, she still needs to know the correct account balance against which she can write checks. A bank statement should be reconciled when it is received, regardless of the size of the account.
FRIDAY WARM UP CASES FOR CRITICAL THINKING.
Case two: Mr. K agrees with Ms. Dorset. One of the purposes of a petty cash fund is to provide for small cash payments. Limiting petty cash payments to $50.00 or less is providing for large payments as well as small. Ms. Dorset’s $20.00 limit is more reasonable for petty cash. The size of the fund, whether $100 or $3000, depends upon the size of the company and the number and amount of payments to be made from the fund.
OBJECTIVES • Define accounting terms related to using a
checking account. • Identify accounting concepts and practices
related to using a checking account. • Prepare business papers related to using a
checking account. • Journalize dishonored checks and electronic
banking transactions.
PREVIEW OF LESSON 5.3 New Terminology Dishonored check a check that a bank
refuses to pay. (p. 129) Electronic funds transfer a
computerized cash payments system that transfers funds without the use of checks, currency, or other paper documents. (p. 131)
Debit card a bank card that automatically deducts the amount of the purchase from the checking account of the cardholder. (p. 132)
LETS TAKE A LOOK! Dishonored checks are taken very seriously
within a bank.-meaning that the depositor has insufficient funds or a forged check is being used.
Some stores post signs to inform customers of the charge that will be imposed for a dishonored check.
When the check is first received, it was deposited and the amount was added to the bank account. Now when it is dishonored the amount must be subtracted from the bank account.
There is usually a fee that is associated with the finding of a dishonored check.

2. Write the total of the dishonored check in the amount column.
3. Calculate and record the new subtotal on the Subtotal line.
REMINDER…. An entry must be recorded in a journal before
it is posted to the account. Only after posting is complete will the cash
account reflect the dishonored check.
REMINDER…. Also, a transaction must first be analyzed to
determine what accounts to debit and credit. Once this analysis is done, an entry can be
recorded into a journal.
There are four steps used to record entry in the journal.

ELECTRONIC FUNDS TRANSFER
EFT means that the business does not have to write a check for this amount. Therefore, there is no check stub for the source document.
A memorandum is often used as a source document for EFT payments.
JOURNALIZING A DEBIT CARD TRANSACTION
There is a difference between an electronic funds transfer and a debit card.
When a purchase is made with a debit card, cash is immediately deducted from the account.
When using a debit card, it is important to remember to record the entry in the journal.
Here are the four steps used to record the entry in the journal.

•When Cash is Paid from a petty cash fund, no formal entry is recorded in a journal.
•Only a petty cash slip is prepared.
•The entry will be made at a later date.
REPLENISHING PETTY CASH The Petty Cash Fund is replenished when the
amount in the fund is low or at the end of a fiscal period.
The balance in the actual petty cash account has never been reduced by an entry. When cash was paid from the fund, no entry was
made in the journal. Therefore, the petty cash account in the general ledger still has a balance of $100.00
page 136
REPLENISHING PETTY CASH (CONT) When cash was paid from the fund, the
reason for the payment was recorded on a petty cash slip but no entry was made in the journal.
These slips are now used to summarize payments from the fund and to record the payments in the journal. To replenish the fund, debit accounts for which petty cash was used and credit the cash account
