After a bank reconciliation is prepared, prepare an adjusting journal entry on the company's books for all items that were recorded by the bank, but not recorded in the books. These usually include:Corrections made by the bankBank feesInterest income recorded by the bankInsufficient fund (NSF) checksElectronic Fund Transfer (EFT) deposits made to the bank account, but not recorded in the books.
A check drawn by a depositor in payment of a voucher for 725 was recorded in the journal as 257, this item would be included in the bank reconciliation as a deduction from the balance. The error should be corrected by the depositor.
Outstanding checks are checks that are issued by the business to third parties, which are not yet cashed in. Hence, the cash book would record these as payments, whereas the bank statement would not show these as outflows. Depending on the format of your bank reconciliation, you would either: (1) Add them back to the cash book balance, or (2) Minus them from the bank statement.
The Debit and Credit on a bank statement reflect the Bank's accounting records, not yours. So when you deposit money into your account, the bank owes you that money to you - it is a liability for them, therefore a credit entry. Similarly, if they charge you a bank fee, it reduces their liability to you, so they would Debit your account (on their books) and Credit an Income account.

Examples of items on a bank reconciliation that would require an adjusting entry on the company's books include bank fees, NSF checks, interest income, deposits in transit, and outstanding checks. These items may not have been recorded in the company's books at the time of the reconciliation, so adjusting entries are needed to bring the books into agreement with the bank statement.
People will not be able to know which of the following bank reconciliation items would not result in an adjusting entry without knowing what the following reconciliation is. This information should be included.
A Bank reconciliation exists to compare accounting records and what is in a person's bank statement. This is to help the bank make sure there are no discrepancies in the bank account including checks not written properly.

The money you owe.You pay the principal, plus interest (rent for using someone else's money) to repay the loan.The principal is normally the amount borrowed, which is reduced by paying any amount exceeding the interest.The principal is the original amount that you borrow. It is usually set for an equal payment amount which includes the interest charge for the period. The principal decreases each time you make a payment as the interest amount due is based on the loan balance at the interest rate of the note.Easy example would be:You borrow $1000 @ 10% interest monthly. Monthly payment is $150.Month 1 - Interest is $100 so $50 would be deducted from principal, new balance is $950.Month 2 - Interest is $95 so $55 would be deducted from principal, new balance is $855.Month 3 - Interest is $85.50 so $64.50 would be deducted from principal, new balance is $790.50.Month 4 - Interest is $79.05 so $70.95 would be deducted from principal, new balance is $719.55.Month 5 - Interest is $71.15 so $71.96 would be deducted from principal, new balance is $647.59.A much easier way is to print an amortization schedule.

Depreciation of a Fixed Asset is always carried on the Balance Sheet in the Accumulated Depreciation Account (contra-asset). It is never deducted from the Fixed Asset.One reason for the Accumulated Depreciation account is that eventually, individual assets will be fully depreciated and their net values will be zero. If the depreciation were deducted from the asset, it would "fall off" the balance sheet. The accumulated depreciation account allows the assets to remain at book value in the asset account to maintain their visual presence on the books.The depreciation entry debits depreciation expense and credits accumulated depreciation.
