Check My Work

Keep in mind that the company needs to journalize any adjusting items in the company section of the bank reconciliation, because these have not been previously recorded by the company. Debit memo items like bank service charges decrease Cash. Items that come from credit memos like collections of notes or interest by the bank increase Cash. If the company made an error that overstates or understates cash in the company section, the journal adjustment would decrease Cash or increase Cash, respectively.
