| TERMINAL EXERCISE |
1. What is Cash Book? Explain the different types of Cash Book.
Ans: Cash Book is a Book in which all cash receipts and cash payments are recorded. It is also one of the books of original entry. It starts with the cash or bank balance at the beginning of the period. In case of new business, there is no cash balance to start with. It is prepared by all organisations. When a cash book is maintained, cash transactions are not recorded in the Journal, and no cash or bank account is required to be maintained in the ledger as Cash Book serves the purpose of Cash Account.
Different types of cash book:
(i) Simple Cash Book: A Simple Cash Book records only cash receipts and cash payments. It has two sides, namely debit and credit. Cash receipts are recorded on the debit side i.e. left hand side and cash payments are recorded on the credit side i.e. right hand side. In this book there is only one amount column on its debit side and on the credit side.
(ii) Bank Column Cash Book: When the number of bank transactions is large in an organisation, it is necessary to have a separate book to record bank transactions. Instead of having a separate book to record bank transactions, a column is added on each side of the Simple Cash Book. This type of cash book is known as Bank column Cash Book. All payments into bank are recorded on the debit side and all withdrawals/payments through the bank are recorded on the credit side of the cash book.
(iii) Petty Cash Book: In big business organisations, a large number of repetitive small payments such as, for conveyance, cartage, postage, telegrams, courier and other expenses are made. These organisations appoint an assistant to the Head Cashier. The appointed cashier is known as petty cashier. He makes payments of these expenses and maintains a separate cash book to record these transactions. Such a cash book is called Petty Cash Book.
2. Draw the format of ‘Bank Column Cash Book’ and write at least five items in it.
Ans: A Bank Column Cash Book is a cash book which has two amount columns on each side—one for Cash and one for Bank transactions.

In Bank column Cash Book, the cash transactions are recorded in a similar manner as are recorded in the Simple cash book. The difference is that Bank column cash book records transactions relating to Bank also.
There are some special business transactions which need special treatment in the Bank column of the Cash Book:
(i) Opening balance.
(ii) Receipts of cheques.
(iii) Contra entries.
(iv) Endorsement of cheques.
(v) Bank charges.
3. What is Contra entry? How will you deal with this entry while preparing Bank Column Cash Book?
Ans: A contra entry is an entry which affects both cash and bank columns of the cash book. It occurs when cash is deposited into the bank or withdrawn from the bank for office use.
Treatment in Bank Column Cash Book:
(i) When cash is deposited into the bank:
(a) It is recorded on the credit side in the cash column.
(b) And on the debit side in the bank column.
(ii) When cash is withdrawn from the bank:
(a) It is recorded on the credit side in the bank column.
(b) And on the debit side in the cash column.
(iii) Such entries are marked with the letter “C” in the folio column to indicate that they are contra entries.
4. What do you mean by Petty Cash Book? Explain the imprest system of Petty Cash Book.
Ans: In big business organisations, a large number of repetitive small payments such as for conveyance, cartage, postage, telegrams, courier and other expenses are made. These organisations appoint an assistant to the Head Cashier. The appointed cashier is known as petty cashier. He makes payments of these expenses and maintains a separate cash book to record these transactions. Such a cash book is called Petty Cash Book.
Imprest System of Petty Cash Book:
Under this system, a fixed amount is given to the petty cashier at the beginning of a period. This amount is called imprest money. The petty cashier makes small payments out of this amount during the period.
At the end of the period, he submits the account of expenses to the Head Cashier and gets reimbursed for the amount spent. After reimbursement, the petty cashier again has the full imprest amount at the beginning of the next period.
For example, if ₹4,000 is given and ₹3,850 is spent, then ₹3,850 is reimbursed so that the balance again becomes ₹4,000.
