Kiting is when you write a check on an account without having funds. You receive cash without having the funds to back it up.


Can you cash a check if you owe the bank money?

This depends on individual bank policy but I believe most banks have a "matching funds policy." This means if there aren't funds in your account to cover the check, then you cannot have all cash for the item. However, if the check is also drawn off the same bank this may serve as a loophole because they would be able to determine if the funds for the check in question are available without relying on the funds you have, or don't have, in your account.

What is the reason to never write a check with cash in the pay to order of line?

It is not a good idea to write a check with "Cash" as the payee because if you or the payee lose the check, anyone could pick it up and cash it, and the bank would not be responsible for the lost funds, since making a check payable to "Cash" essentially allows anyone holding the check to cash it.


What does the term hold for collection mean when you deposit a check?

A check can only bounce twice before a bank will no longer accept it. As such, when collection agencies cash a check from a debtor and it bounces, they don't want to take the risk of trying to cash it and just hoping funds are available only to see it bounce again. If they did, then they would end up having to collect the delinquent funds all over again. As such, they will often use this tactic of asking the bank to 'hold a check for collection', which means that the bank will keep the check on file for up to 30 days and check every day if there are funds available. As soon as funds become available they will immediately cash it.


Is cash a source or use of funds?

Answer:Cash is funds. When activities generate cash, it is said these activities are a source of funds. And, if the activities use up cash, it is a use of funds. Note: in the 'Funds flow statement', working capital is used as a measure of funds, which is a broader definition of funds than cash. For example, working capital increases when inventory increases, but cash would remain unchanged.
