Starr · Answer 1

credit to Cash Short and Over for $15

Explanation:

Given that,

Petty cash fund to be = $175

Cash in hand (petty cash) = $22

Expenses actually incurred:

= Petty cash fund to be - Cash in hand (petty cash)

= $175 - $22

= $153

Amount received = $168

Cash short and over received:

= Amount received - Expenses actually incurred

= $168 - $153

= $15 (Excess cash received)

Therefore, credit to cash short and over for $15.
