CASH – In accounting, cash includes money in the form of currency and coins, negotiable instruments in the form of
checks and money orders acceptable by the bank for immediate credit and bank deposits whether in a savings or
current account.
CASH EQUIVALENTS – Under PAS 7, cash equivalents are short-term and highly liquid investment that are readily
convertible into cash and so near their maturity that they present insignificant risk in changes in value because of
changes in interest rates.
BANK RECONCILIATION - A statement that that settles the difference between the bank statement balance and the
cash balance per book which is the current balance in the checkbook of the depositor.
BOOK RECONCILING ITEMS – Includes credit memos, debit memos and errors that need to be corrected or adjusted
by the depositor in order for the balance per book to reconcile with the adjusted balance.
BANK RECONCILING ITEMS – Includes deposits in transit, outstanding checks and errors.
CERTIFIED CHECKS – Checks that have been accepted by the bank and where the drawer’s account has been
debited but the money has yet to be withdrawn by the payee. The funds are now held by the bank on behalf of the
payee and the check is no longer outstanding.
PETTY CASH FUND – Money set aside to pay small and recurring expenses where it will be inefficient to settle such
payments by issuing checks. Accounting for petty cash involves an Imprest Fund System that is more commonly used
due to its efficiency and convenience rather than the Fluctuating Fund System that requires each disbursement to be
recorded.
IMPREST CONTROL SYSTEM – Implemented as a control system where all cash receipts is including checks to be
deposited intact and all cash disbursements be made by the issuance of a check. Although a petty cash fund will also
be used to settle small expenses.
Checks and money orders held unless the checks are post-dated, defective or stale. Such items shall still be
included as receivables.
Unrestricted bank deposits, however checks that have been recorded as payments that have not been delivered
or post-dated must be restored back to the bank deposits’ balance with a corresponding liability for the payment
that was made.
Funds on hand and deposits that are for current use and have been restricted for a liability that is classified as
“current”. This includes petty cash fund, payroll fund and funds for taxes and dividends as mentioned in PAS
1.
A. Bank Overdraft – A credit or negative balance in the bank account of the depositor resulting from an issuance
of a check that exceeds the amount of the deposit.
As a rule an overdraft shall be classified as a current liability and not offset against current accounts with
a positive or debit balance.
As an exception, if the overdraft is in a bank where there are other accounts that have a positive balance
and those accounts are sufficient to cover the overdraft, the total cash shall be shown net of the
overdraft.
B. Compensating Balance Agreement – Part of or deposits that a bank can use to offset an existing loan.
However, compensating balances can also describe a minimum amount of the deposit that a depositor agrees
to maintain in order to guarantee future credit availability.

In the case of deposits that a bank can use to offset a loan, the assumption is that this amount is legally
restricted to withdrawal and therefore excluded from cash, however in cases that it still remains to be
unrestricted, the compensating balance shall be part of cash. If the compensating balance is legally
restricted the following rules shall be followed:
a) The related loan is short-term: The compensating balance shall be part of current assets but
separately from cash.
b) The related loan is long-term: The compensating balance is part of noncurrent assets as an
investment.
An informal agreement to maintain a minimum amount of deposit will not be legally restricted and
therefore included in cash.
C. Time Deposits – Bank savings account that earns interest but not subject to immediate withdrawal or check
issuance. A notice must be submitted by the depositor for the withdrawal of funds and interest earned shall be
forfeited.
Time deposits are excluded from cash because of their restriction on availability as funds and are
classified as investments and shall follow these specific classifications:
a. Cash equivalents if the original term is 3 months or less.
b. Short term investments if the original term is more than 3 months to 1 year
c. Long-term investments if the original term is more than 1 year.
Cash Equivalents – The three important characteristics for cash equivalents as mentioned in PAS 7 are short-term,
highly liquid and near maturity. In other words, short-term debt instruments with low risk (also low yield) and acquired
3 months or less from maturity date shall be considered as cash equivalents.
Examples include Treasury Bills, Bonds and Notes, Time Deposits, Certificate of deposits and Bankers Acceptances
and Commercial Papers.
