what is reconciliation..

Answer / rajiv sabharwal

Reconciliation means to tally cash book with bank pass book
so that both balances reflect the same amount i.e. their
balances agree.

Sometimes bank debit and sometimes credit account with
amount which is not in the knowledge of accountant and that
create difference in cash & bank pass book balance.
Sometimes cheques are issued but they are not presented for
collection in the bank, sometimes cheques are deposited but
they are cashed on time. These and few other reasons create
difference in pass and cash book.

To over come from these differences and to tally our
balances we reconcile our cash book with pass book.

what is reconciliation..

Answer / chaya.h.g

You should have recorded in your cash books all amounts you
have actually received and payments you ve actually made.
However the cash books may be incomplete as your bank may
have put extra transactions through your account such as:

* bank fees or interest charges
* direct debits (payments) and direct credits (receipts).

Doing a regular bank reconciliation will allow you to:
* take into account any extra transactions your bank puts
through your account and
* check and record any errors or omissions.

By regularly doing a bank reconciliation (say monthly) you
can be more confident that your records contain all the
information you need to prepare your income tax return and
activity statements.

Answer / ashasuresh

Reconciliation is actually the differences between the bank
book and the cash book.
Eg: if Mr A receives a cheque of Rs 10,000/- and debits
this cheque into the bank in his account his cash book
might show an credit balance of Rs.10,000/- but bank might
have taken some time to still make an entry in bank pass
book . any how reconcialation should tally the bank pass
book and cash book amounts
