Additional Information Check No. 5904 is correctly drawn for $2,140 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 $2,098. 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. The credit memorandum is from the collection of a $1,690 note for Chavez Company by the bank. The bank deducted a $22 collection fee. The collection and fee are not yet recorded.
