  • Question 1
    1 / -0
    Favourable balance means                  .
    Solution
    The cash book is a  account statement as maintained by the account holder. So if the cash book reflects a debit balance it means that the account is in the nature of a debtor/receivable for the account  holder and  it would be the opposite for the bank.
    The pass book is a copy of the account statement as maintained by the bank. So if the pass book reflects a credit balance it means that the account is in the nature of a creditor/payable for the bank and  it would be the opposite for the account holder.
    So from the account holder's  point of view he would be having a positive/favourable  balance in his account in both the above situations whereas for the bank it would be the opposite.
  • Question 2
    1 / -0
    Unfavourable bank balance means _______________.
    Solution
    Unfavorable or negative balance means credit balance in cash book. This means that we have taken a loan from the bank i.e. we owe money to the bank. In such a case, the bank expects money from us and we become an asset for the bank. Assets have debit balance. So, the bank shows debit balance in our pass book, which is a copy of customer's account in the books of bank. So, an unfavorable balance in cash book represents debit balance in pass book.
  • Question 3
    1 / -0
    A Bank Reconciliation Statement is mainly prepared to ___________.
    Solution
    Whenever money is deposited in bank  or withdrawn from bank it is recorded in two places.
    • The passbook maintained by the bank
    • The cash book (bank column ) maintained by the account holder.
    These two books are opposites of each other which means if one shows credit balance then the other would reflect a debit balance of the exact same amount. But due to reasons like timing differences the balances of both these books do not match. Now, it is not practical and feasible for the bank to reconcile the account balances of each and every account holder so, the account holder prepares a bank reconciliation statement for his account maintained in the bank.

Reconciling the two accounts helps to determine if accounting changes are needed. Bank reconciliation are completed at regular intervals to ensure that the company's cash records are correct.
