BANK
CONFIRMATION
When applying bank confirmations as a substantive test of
details, the auditor should send out confirmations to all
banks that the company has engaged with during the year.

The auditor should advise the entity to send a letter to all its
bankers to, directly confirm the balances to the auditor.
BANK
CONFIRMATION
BANK
RECONCILIATION
Bank Reconciliation is a schedule prepared that accounts
for the differences between cash balances per book and per
bank statement.

In the procedures of audit cash, we usually review the bank


reconciliation statement at the year-end to make sure that
client has taken into account all adjusting and reconciling
items, such as deposits in transit, outstanding check, and
bank charges, into the bank reconciliation.
BANK
RECONCILIATION
Bank reconciliations are prepared to:

01 Explain the difference between cash reported on the


bank statement and cash balance on the entity’s book.

02 Arrive at the adjusted cash balance, which is to be shown


in the financial statements.

03 Provide information for reconciling journal entries.


FORMS OF BANK
RECONCILIATION

book balance is adjusted to equal the bank balance.
02 Bank to Book Method

Under this method, the bank balance is reconciled with the book balance or the
bank statement is adjusted to equal the book balance.
03 Adjusted Balance Method

Under this method, the book balance and the bank balance are brought to the

BOOK & BANK ERRORS
1. Errors in the current month corrected in the same month (have diff.
adjustments for book and bank.)
2. Errors in the current month not yet corrected
3. Errors in the prior month corrected in the current month
4. Errors in the prior month not yet corrected in the current month
BOOK & BANK ERRORS
Concept to remember!

Whenever there is an error, the bank/book will always adjust it using an addition to either
receipts or disbursements.

Hence, if the bank/book corrects the error, the ending cash balance will always be correct
but the journey towards the ending balance is incorrect. (Receipts and disbursement are
erroneous).
BOOK & BANK ERRORS
Steps in adjusting/correcting errors in proof of cash:

Step 1: Analyze the given scenario/problem. (What are the assumptions)


Step 2: Identify what type of error occurred in the scenario. (If under/over,
receipt/disbursement, occurred prior/current month, corrected/not yet corrected)
Step 3: Plot the errors occurred
Step 4: Plot the correction made by the book/bank
Step 5: Plot the appropriate adjustments
