General comments
a. The January 31 and February 28 columns require no further
explanation. They represent the usual reconciliations
discussed eariier.
b. The receipts and disbursements columns pertain to the
current month of February. Actually, the proof of cash is a
reconciliation of the recei,pts ond disbursements for the
current peri,od.
c. The proof of cash, following the adjusted balance method,
means that the book receipts and disbursements, and the
bank receipts and disbursements for the current month
are adjusted to equai the correct receipts and
disbursements for the current month.
