Marques Duarte · Answer 1

Option (c) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Cash balance per company books on January 30 = $4,725

Deposits in transit at month-end = $ 1,800

Outstanding checks at month-end = $ 520

Bank service charges = $ 25

EFT deduction = $380

NSF check returned on a customer account = $ 265

Adjusted cash balance as per books:

= Unadjusted book balance - Bank Service charge - EFT deduction - NSF check

= $4,725 - $25 - $380 - $265

= $4,055
