Can ypu please help with the question below? Happy Banking Company has ten automatic teller machines $($ATM$)$ spread throughout the city

The associate cashiers make between two and four daily trips to each machine to collect and replenish cash and to replenish supplies, deposit tickets and so forth.

The head cashier reconciles the activities of the two associate cashiers to the computerized reports. The supervisor, who does handle cash, reviews the reconciliation.
