Normal balance of bonds payable account is credit account and it is shown under liability side of balance sheet because these are the amounts payable in future.

To prepare a ledger using the three-column form of account, you would typically have columns for account names, debit amounts, and credit amounts. Start by entering the trial balance amounts in their respective debit or credit columns based on the account type. Then, post the adjusting trial balance entries by making the necessary adjustments to the account balances based on accrued expenses, prepaid expenses, depreciation, and other adjusting entries. Be sure to update each account balance accordingly in the ledger to reflect the adjustments made.
The account balance will reflect any payments made into the account providing the account is on real time banking. So if you pay in any cheques the account balance will reflect this.

I am not a banking expert, but my understanding is that - say you have 100$ in your account and you pay in a cheque for another 100$, then your current balance will be 200$ but your available balance will be 100$ until the cheque clears (when the available balance will match the current balance). This protects the bank from someone paying in a cheque that may 'bounce' and withdrawing money that never gets put into the account.
