    You can prepare a bank reconciliation by starting with the balance as per the company's books, and undoing all entries that were entered in the books but are not yet reflecting in the bank statement, and then adjusting for all entries that are in the bank statement that were not recorded in the company's books as you would have entered them if given the chance to record them as shown below:

    Explanation:

    Balance as per cash account 2,450

    add back outstanding checks 1,800

    less deposit in transit (400)

    add receipt from Wayne Brown 530

    less service charge (30)

    Add interest earned 20

    Balance as per Bank Statement 4,370
