Additional Information
Check No. 5904 is correctly drawn for $2,130 to pay for computer
equipment; however, the recordkeeper misread the amount and entered
it in the accounting records with a debit to Computer Equipment and
a credit to Cash of $2,093. The NSF check shown in the statement
was originally received from a customer, S. Nilson, in payment of
her account. Its return has not yet been recorded by the company.
The credit memorandum is from the collection of a $1,510 note for
Chavez Company by the bank. The bank deducted a $23 collection fee.
The collection and fee are not yet recorded.
