I have a number of points related to the auditing procedures I applied to Keystone's cash accounts as follows: 1. Cash Lead Schedule (Exhibit 1) The company's petty cash (account 101) is stated at \$50. But the petty cash custodian acknowledges that there was only $41 in the account as of year-end because a $9.00 expenditure for supplies had been made This overstates cash by $9.00, although pass adjustment due to immateriality. (Callout /11 ) 2. Bank Reconciliation (Exhibit 2): The account receivable collected by the bank was paid by a client directly to the bank on December 29, year 5 . Keystone recorded the entry for the proper amount on January 2, year 6 . No adjusting entry is needed as o 12/31/year 5. (Callout //2 ) 3. Standard Bank Confirmation (Exhibit 3) The bank representative added a comment to the confirmation. The comment is a "boilerplate" disclaimer of liability that definitely does not affect the reliability of the information we obtained. (Callout $3 ) 4. Deposit in Transit (Exhibit 4) The deposit in transit seems properly handled on the bank reconciliation (Exhibit 2 ) with a debit to cash (Callout /4 ) 5. Outstanding Checks (Exhibit 5) and Bank Transfer Schedule (Exhibit 6). Check 2034 from the bank transfer schedule was omitted from the list of outstanding checks. This is because it was not written unti 1/1/year 6 . (Callout /45) 6. Outstanding Checks (Exhibit 5) The long-outstanding check for $200 will probably never be cashed as the company has atterripted to communicate with the payee and falled. Because the state does not require submission of such funds, we should suggest to the client that the $200 check be deleted from the outstanding check list, no adjusting journal entry seems necessary. (Callout /6) 7. Outstanding Checks (Exhibit 5) Keystone's first bank statement in yeor 6 included check 2027 dated on 12/30 for $1,500 to Jenco Corp, I found the check to be properly recorded in the cosh disbursements journal as of 12/30/yeor5. No further oudit response is necessary related to check 2027 . (Callout / 7 ) 8 Bank Tronsfer Schedute (Exhibit 5 ) Check 2032 appears to result in the cash being recorded in both accounts per books as of year-end and thus overstotes total cash by $1,500 ot year-end (Callout /NB ) Retain the original text.
