Q1. How much is the correct balance of petty cash fund as of December 31, 2023?

Q2.How much is the amount of shortage in petty cash fund as of the date of count?

To determine the correct balance of the petty cash fund as of December 31, 2023, and the amount of
shortage as of the date of the count (January 3, 2024), we need to analyze the transactions and items
found during the count.
Step 1: Calculate the Petty Cash Fund balance as of December 31, 2023:

Starting Imprest Balance: P20,000

Add:

1. Total bills and coins found: P4,835

2. Certified check of the general manager dated December 27, 2023: P3,150

Total Petty Cash as of December 31, 2023:

P20,000 + P4,835 + P3,150 = P28,985

Step 2: Calculate the total of outstanding petty cash vouchers:

1. Postage stamps (dated December 28, 2023): P1,420

2. Supplies (dated December 29, 2023): P1,750

3. JOU of an employee (dated December 30, 2023): P1,000

4. Meals and transportation (dated January 2, 2024): P1,250

Total outstanding petty cash vouchers:

P1,420 + P1,750 + P1,000 + P1,250 = P5,420

Step 3: Calculate the adjusted balance of the petty cash fund as of January 3, 2024:

Adjusted balance = Total Petty Cash (as of Dec 31, 2023) - Total outstanding vouchers

Adjusted balance = P28,985 - P5,420 = P23,565

So, the correct balance of the petty cash fund as of December 31, 2023, is P28,985.

Step 4: Calculate the amount of shortage in the petty cash fund as of January 3, 2024:

Shortage = Adjusted Balance - (Company check representing replenishment of petty cash fund + Unused
postage stamps + Currency in the envelope)
Shortage = P23,565 - (P6,750 + P560 + P4,200) = P12,055

So, the amount of shortage in the petty cash fund as of the date of the count (January 3, 2024) is
P12,055.
