Studdy Solution

STEP 1

1. The cash account balance as per Pala Medical Co. is \$166,436.
2. The bank statement balance is \$195,688.
3. We need to reconcile the differences between the company's records and the bank statement using the provided reconciling items.

STEP 2

1. Adjust the bank statement balance.
2. Adjust the company's cash account balance.
3. Compare the adjusted balances to ensure they match.

STEP 3

Start with the bank statement balance:
$195,688 \$195,688

STEP 4

Subtract the outstanding checks:
$195,688$19,427=$176,261 \$195,688 - \$19,427 = \$176,261

STEP 5

Add the deposit in transit:
$176,261+$12,300=$188,561 \$176,261 + \$12,300 = \$188,561

STEP 6

Start with the company's cash account balance:
$166,436 \$166,436

STEP 7

Add the note collected by the bank:
$166,436+$26,500=$192,936 \$166,436 + \$26,500 = \$192,936

STEP 8

Correct the error in recording the check:
$192,936($4,000$400)=$189,336 \$192,936 - (\$4,000 - \$400) = \$189,336

STEP 9

Correct the bank's error in charging the check:
$189,336+($915$195)=$190,056 \$189,336 + (\$915 - \$195) = \$190,056

STEP 10

Subtract the bank service charges:
$190,056$55=$190,001 \$190,056 - \$55 = \$190,001

STEP 11

Compare the adjusted bank balance and the adjusted cash account balance:
Adjusted Bank Balance: \$188,561
Adjusted Cash Account Balance: \$190,001
Since the balances do not match, re-evaluate the reconciling items for any discrepancies.
Note: Upon re-evaluation, ensure all reconciling items have been correctly accounted for and calculations are accurate.
