Dennis Fernandez · Answer 1

Answer: when the petty cash fund is replenished.

Explanation: it is convenient for every business to have small amounts of cash available for payment of items-expenses that are too small to merit a check. As a result businesses establish a petty cash fund to permit these cash disbursements. An advantage of the petty cash fund is that at the time of payments, no journal entry is required which avoids the need for making many entries for small amounts. As such, expenses are recognized only when the fund is reimbursed or replenished (usually at the end of the accounting period) when the business makes an entry in the journal.

Answer: When the petty cash fund is replenished.

Explanation: Petty cash is a small or limited amount of money usually reserved for to handle and pay for certain expenditures that are too small to require the use or issuance of cheques.

As expenses are made from the petty cash, the expended amount are replenished periodically in order to ensure that the daily required sum needed to run or manage the needs of the Organisation is met.
