Mariyah Poole · Answer 1

Add the deposit to the bank statement balance.

Explanation:

This is a temporary difference, the bank balance will be adjusted in the bank reconciliation to get the adjusted bank statment.

The deposit is an increase of cash, it will not be deducted. The bank will acknowledge the deposit in 48 or 72 hours so there is no need to send any memo.
