QUESTION TWO a) On 4 April 2020 Kofi Ntam received his bank statements for the month ended 31 March 2020. The bank statement showed a balance of GH417,400 (overdraft) as at 31 March whilst the cash book showed a balance of GH525,990 (credit) as at that date. Upon examination of the cash book and the bank statement the following were discovered: Bank charges of GH2,010 had not been recorded in the cash book. Kofi Ntam exceeded his overdraft limit during the month of March. The bank had therefore, charged a penalty of GH2,500.

This was deposited to the business bank account in error by the bank. 2 Standing orders and direct debits of GH 11,150 had not been posted to the cash book Customers had deposited GH21,700 directly to the bank account.
