presented to the bank and hence not reflected in the pass
book/Bank statement

2. Cheques received recorded in the books but not yet
cleared hence not reflected in the bank pass book

3. charges charged by the bank reflected in the bank pass
book but as these are not knowned to the accountant hence
not reflected in the accounts.

pass book but not entered in the account books.
