PRACTICE EXERCISE 9 From the following information, prepare a bank reconciliation statement for the Asian Book Store on February 28, 20. Follow these steps carefully: Compare the outstanding deposit and the outstanding cheques shown on the January 31 reconciliation statement (Figure 9.20a) with the deposits and cheques listed on the February bank statement (Figure 9.20b). If these items now appear on the bank statement, they are no longer outstanding. Therefore, you should put a check mark beside each of these amounts on the bank statement.
