INFORMATION:

The bookkeeper from Zulu Stores compared the Bank Statement received from Kings
Bank during June 2023 with their May 2023 Bank Reconciliation Statement and the Cash
Journals for June 2023 and found the following differences:

A. The Bank Account in the General Ledger reflected a debit balance of R21 800 on
   1 June 2023.

B. Before inspecting the June Bank Statement, the provisional totals in the June 2023
   Cash Journals were: CRJ: R116 400 and CPJ: R132 500.

C. Bank charges of R1 150 and interest on a debit balance of R230 appeared on the
   June 2023 Bank Statement but not in the relevant Cash Journal/s.

D. EFT received from a debtor was correctly reflected as R5 300 on the Bank Statement
   for June 2023, but was incorrectly recorded as R3 500 in the relevant Cash Journal.

E. A deposit of R2 190 received on 25 June 2023 for sales was entered in the Cash
   Receipts Journal as R2 910.

F. A debtor transferred R1 000 directly into the bank account of Zulu Stores in settlement
   of their account of R1 100. This appeared only on the Bank Statement for June 2023.

G. The annual insurance premium in respect of the owner’s personal vehicle was paid by
   means of a debit order, R1 440. This appeared on the June 2023 Bank Statement
   only.

H. The debit order for cellphone data, R1 840, was not recorded in the relevant Cash
   Journal. It was also incorrectly duplicated on the June 2023 Bank Statement.

 I. A deposit for R22 500, dated 23 June 2023, was not reflected in the respective Cash
    Journal, but appeared on the June 2023 Bank Statement.

 J. A deposit of R12 700, dated 20 June 2023, was not reflected on the June 2023 Bank
    Statement. The amount appeared only in the Cash Receipts Journal.

K. Rent of R9 200, received on 30 June 2023, was recorded in the relevant Cash Journal
   from a proof of payment received from the tenant. This did not appear on the Bank
   Statement for June 2023.

 L. The following EFTs, all dated 30 June 2023, were not reflected on the Bank
    Statement for June 2023:

        EFT 778         R 6 200
        EFT 791         R 520
        EFT 797         R 1 260

                                                                                          P.T.O.

 M. On the May 2023 Bank Statement, the interest amount of R355 received from the bank

    Bank Reconciliation Statement for May 2023. However, it was found that the error has
    not yet been corrected by the bank on the June 2023 Bank Statement. The bank has
    given the assurance that the error will be corrected in July 2023.

  N. The Bank Statement closed with a balance of R ? on 25 June 2023.

    account of Bark Traders.

J. The sales of R10 001 reflected on 29 April 2023 in the statement from Rose
   Traders was definitely for Sunrays Nurseries.
