of $14,691.80 after both the cash receipts journal and the cash payments journal for May had
been posted. The bank statement indicated a balance of $19,913.90 on May 31. Comparison of

the note was $3,000.

credited the company’s account for $552.

payments journal as $96. The check was for the payment for the purchase of office supplies
on account.
