Cheques # 296 for $1,558 and # 307 for $14,896 were outstanding on the September 30 bank reconciliation. Cheque # 307 was returned with the October cancelled cheques, but cheque # 296 was not. It was also found that cheque # 315 for $1,043 and cheque # 321 for $2,336, both written in October, were not among the cancelled cheques returned with the statement. c. In comparing the cancelled cheques returned by the bank with the entries in the accounting records, it was found that cheque #320 for the October rent was correctly written for $7,110 but was erroneously entered in the accounting records as $7,920. d.

The cheque had been received from a customer, Jefferson Tyler. Montrose had not recorded this bounced cheque before receiving the statement. f.
