Change Fund
Controls:
Some of the important controls to consider when
dealing with cash drawers are:
Individual responsibility
Segregation of duties
The cashier must accept responsibility for the
change fund and cash received. The cashier should
not be allowed to record the results of cash sales
activities into the accounting system.
CourseCollege.com

At any point
in time, the
total of the
cash register
tape for sales
plus the
beginning
change fund
should equal
the total
ending cash
count.

Sales total 895.00

Using the equation, beginning change fund + register


tape sales should equal ending cash count however,
$150
895
$1045
Therefore, cash is short $2 and the Cash Short and Over
account will be used to record this expense (debit). If the
cash count exceeded $1045, the Cash Short and Over
account would have been used to record the gain (credit).

Journalize
Cash Sales
The cash count total
of $1,043 is not
journalized.
We simply record
the effect on the
regular cash account
with a debit for the
actual increase in
cash $1,043 - $150 =
$893
No entry is made to
the Change Fund
except to increase or
decrease it.

Objective 9.2: Establish


and account for a
Petty Cash Fund.
Cash is called liquid for a
good reason. It flows easily
and must be protected
carefully by firms.
However small or petty,
theft of petty cash over time
can seriously damage an
unsuspecting firm.

Who is keeping track of


the cash?
Firms that use bank checking
deposit services actually have two
parties that keep track of the firms
cash balances
1)the firm itself and, 2)the firms
bank.

O9.3

As a result, the firm must regularly


compare the two balances and
confirm any reasons for differences.
This process is called reconciliation
