Bounced cheque entry is the reversal of original entry of cheque deposit as follows:
[Debit] Cash account
[Credit] Bank account
When the bank has not enough funds in the relevant account or the account holder requests that the cheque is bounced (under exceptional circumstances) then the bank will return the cheque to the account holder. The beneficiary of the cheque will have not been paid. This normally incurs a fee from the bank.
the entry for Cheque dishonor would be Party A\c dr To Bank A\c
Assuming you've already accounted for the cheque having cleared, you would credit the bank account to remove the cash and then debit the expense or the debtor to reinstate it. E.G. A customer called John pays you a cheque for £500 to clear his debt from your books. You have already accounted for this. To reverse the entry: DR John's Debtor £500 CR Bank Account £500 Hope this helps!

A cheque
an NSF cheque is often called a "bounced" cheque
When the bank has not enough funds in the relevant account or the account holder requests that the cheque is bounced (under exceptional circumstances) then the bank will return the cheque to the account holder. The beneficiary of the cheque will have not been paid. This normally incurs a fee from the bank.
If you have been given a cheque by somebody and that cheque bounced you can file a legal petition against them. If you have been giving cheques that would bounce, you can be legally prosecuted.
You can do two things: a. Ask the person who gave you the cheque that bounced (got dishonored) to pay you again. If they agree then well and good. b. If they refuse to pay, then you can file a police complaint against the person who gave you the bounced cheque and request the authorities to get you the money you were supposed to get through that cheque.
A cheque is "bounced" when there is not enough money in the account on which it is drawn to pay it. If I write a $50 cheque on an account with only $40 in it, and someone tries to cash it, the bank will refuse to give them any money and will mark the cheque "NSF" for " Not Sufficient Funds".
