Lesson Content

Definition of Cash
Cash – simply means money
Money – a standard of medium of exchange in business transactions

In accounting, cash includes money and any other negotiable instrument that is payable in money andacceptable
by the bank for deposit and immediate credit.

✔To be included as cash, it must be unrestricted in use.

1. Cash on hand
a) Undeposited cash collections
b) Undeposited dated customer’s checks (customer’s checks awaiting deposit)
c) Traveler’s check – a certified bank draft that travelers may use the same way they use regular paper
currency.1
d) Cashier’s check – a type of official check that banks issue and sign. When you purchase a cashier’s check,
the bank takes the money from your checking or savings account and puts it in its own account. The bank
then writes out a check to the person or business you need to pay. You’ll typically pay a fee for a cashier’s
check to the bank.2
e) Manager’s check – is a check issued by the bank’s manager upon the bank itself promising to pay to the
payee or its order an amount certain in money at a certain date.3
f) Money orders – a certificate, usually issued by a government or banking institution, that allows the
stated payee to receive cash on demand. A money order functions much like a check, in that the person
who purchased the money order may stop payment.4
g) Bank drafts – a written order addressed to the bank to pay an amount of money to the order of themaker.
It is a check that is drawn on a bank’s funds and guaranteed by the bank that issues it. To get a banker’s
draft, a bank customer must have funds (or cash) available. The bank will freeze theamount needed or
move those funds into the bank’s accounts to complete the payment.

2. Cash in bank
a) Demand deposit/commercial deposit/current account/checking account
b) Savings deposit (savings account)

3. Cash fund (current operations)


a) Petty cash fund (for small and miscellaneous disbursements)
b) Change fund
c) Payroll fund
d) Purchasing fund (for purchasing of inventories)
e) Revolving fund (fund that is used for limited or specific purpose set by management)
f) Interest fund
g) Dividend fund
h) Travel fund
i) Tax fund
Other Funds
Fund for Non-current Operations Classification
Pension fund if related liability is current, then pension fund is current, thus partof
cash
Preferred redemption fund noncurrent investment (unless the preferred share capital has a
mandatory redemption, and the redemption is already within oneyear
from the reporting period in which case this fund is already part of ash
equivalent)
Acquisition of property, plant, and always noncurrent even if expected to be disbursed next year
equipment
Contingent fund Non-current investment
Insurance fund Non-current investment
Sinking fund Always noncurrent even if expected to be disbursed next year

✔Classification of cash fund as current or non-current should parallel the classification applied to therelated
liability. Thus, an entity should classify such non-current asset if the related liability becomes current.

Definition of Cash Equivalents


▪ are short-term and highly liquid investments that are readily convertible into cash and so near their
maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates.
▪ only highly liquid investments that are acquired three months before maturity can qualify as cash
equivalents
Examples:
4. Time deposit – acquired within three months from maturity date
5. Three-month treasury bill
6. Three-year treasury bills purchased three months before date of maturity
7. Three-month money market instrument and commercial paper
8. Redeemable preference shares with mandatory redemption period and acquired three months
before maturity

Investment of excess cash


Term Classification Presentation
≤ Three months cash equivalents “Cash and cash equivalents”
1 year ≥ x > three months short-term financial assets/temporary Current assets
investments
>1 year long-term investments Non-current assets

▪ A system of control of cash which requires that all cash receipts should be deposited intact and all cash
disbursements should be made by means of check. However, it is sometimes impossible to issue check for all
payments especially for small amounts.

a Check drawn to establish the fund Petty cash fund xx
Cash in bank xx

low, a check is drawn to replenish the
Cash in bank xx
fund. Thereplenishment check is
