Additional Information

  1. (a) Check Number 5904 is correctly drawn for $2,072 to pay for computer equipment; however, the recordkeeper misread the amount and entered it in the accounting records with a debit to Computer Equipment and a credit to Cash of $2,033.
  2. (b) The NSF check shown in the statement was originally received from a customer, S. Nilson, in payment of her account. Its return has not yet been recorded by the company.
  3. (c) The collection of the note on September 30 is not yet recorded by the company.

2. Prepare journal entries to adjust the book balance of cash to the reconciled balance. (If no entry is required for a transaction/event, select "No journal entry required" in the first account field.)
