Bank Reconciliation Statements
- Bank reconciliation statements are statements prepared to reconcile the balances of bank balances as per the company’s records and as per the balances of the bank statements, as they may not always match owing to timing differences of financial transactions.
- For example, when a check is issued today by a company to a vendor for past purchases, it records a
cash outflow in its statements today and lowers the balance of the bank in its books. However the actual balance of the bank account may not reduce till the check actually clears and hence there is a timing difference.
- These timing differences lead to difference between the balances of bank balances as per the company’s records and as per the balances of the
bank statements and bank reconciliation statements help in reconciling these balances.
