Cash and Bank Reconciliation Examples

A bank reconciliation is where you see the actual bank balance as shown on the bank statement and compare it to the balance on the same date in the cashbook. These two reconciliations are two of the most important internal controls in any organisation. They should be done, checked and filed every month without fail."
