Evaluate the effectiveness and shortcomings of the preparation of bank reconciliation by the controller by firstly reviewing the sorted list of returned checks and find which numbers are missing and then determine the amount of the uncleared checks by referring to the cash disbursements journal. If the bank account reconciles by doing this then the reconciliation is done. If it does not, then controller search for deposits in transit, checks from the beginning outstanding check list that still have notcleared, other reconciling items, and bank errors until it reconciles.
