How to do Reconciliation for Your Bank Account?

The bank statement which you receive at each month’s end comprises your bank account’s extraneous and financial deposits. After receiving it, follow the steps outlined below to perform a Bank Reconciliation session perfectly.

  • Go for deposit comparison

Compare your bank statements with your business deposits. Compare the amounts written both on the credit and debit sides of a bank statement, then mark these sums which emerge within both the records.

  • Amend your bank statements

This is the second most important step in performing an Account Reconciliation Process perfectly. Adjust your bank statements’ balance by turning it into the rectified balance. Add a document like deduct outstanding checks/transit deposits/deduct bank errors accordingly.

Finally, compare the bank statement with the cash account’s general ledger to identify the hidden mistakes.

  • Amend your cash account

Now, you must incorporate the cash balance into your business account, judiciously. Overdraft fees, add interest or deduct monthly charges to complete the job perfectly. At last, compare the general ledger and account balance of your business once more. If some mistakes still get detected then repeat the process of Balance Sheet Reconciliation once again.
