Problem 7-6A Carla Vista Company is a very profitable small business. It has not, however, given much consideration to internal control. For example, in an attempt to keep clerical and office expenses to a minimum, the company has combined the jobs of cashier and bookkeeper. As a result, Bret Turrin handles all cash receipts, keeps the accounting records, and prepares the monthly bank reconciliations. The balance per the bank statement on October 31, 2017, was $19,681.00. Outstanding checks were No. 62 for $161.00, No. 183 for $177.00, No. 284 for $269.00, No. 862 for $226.00, No. 863 for $254.00, and No. 864 for $206.00. Included with the statement was a credit memorandum of $197.00 indicating the collection of a note receivable for Carla Vista Company by the bank on October 25. This memorandum has not been recorded by Carla Vista. The company's ledger showed one Cash account with a balance of $23,332.00. The balance included undeposited cash on hand. Because of the lack of internal controls, Bret took for personal use all of the undeposited receipts in excess of $3,970.00. He then prepared the following bank reconciliation in an effort to conceal his theft of cash. $23,332.00 Cash balance per books, October 31 Add: Outstanding checks No. 862 No. 863 No. 864 $226.00 254.00 206.00 Less: Undeposited receipts Unadjusted balance per bank, October 31 Less: Bank credit memorandum Cash balance per bank statement, October 31 516.00 23,848.00 3,970.00 19,878.00 197.00 $19,681.00 (a) Prepare a correct bank reconciliation.
