Transcribed Image Text:Pharoah Company is a very profitable small business. It has not, however, given much consideration to internal control. For example, in an attempt to keep clerical and office expenses to a minimum, the company has combined the jobs of cashier and bookkeeper. As a result, Bret Turrin handles all cash receipts, keeps the accounting records, and prepares the monthly bank reconciliations.
The balance per the bank statement on October 31, 2022, was $20,286.00. Outstanding checks were No. 62 for $166.00, No. 183 for $178.00, No. 284 for $291.00, No. 862 for $200.00, No. 863 for $275.00, and No. 864 for $212.00. Included with the statement was a credit memorandum of $203.00 indicating the collection of a note receivable for Pharoah Company by the bank on
October 25. This memorandum has not been recorded by Pharoah.
The company's ledger showed one Cash account with a balance of $23,744.00. The balance included undeposited cash on hand. Because of the lack of internal controls, Bret took for personal use all of the undeposited receipts in excess of $3,832.00. He then prepared the following bank reconciliation in an effort to conceal his theft of cash.
