An accountant records the cashbook transactions chronologically as they occur within the debit or credit columns. Cash book is a book which consists of all the cash transactions. Cash book in general is considered as a book of original entry as well as final entry as it serves twin role of a ledger as well as journal. Cash book is the account which keeps track of all the cash transactions of the business as cash book is a part of Ledger. Cash book consists of Cash Account and Bank Account. Cash Account is an Asset account or Real Account and thus, any increase in\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 1em;text-align: initial\">Cash or Bank Account is debited to the account and; any decrease in Cash or Bank account is credited to the account. Cash Book always shows a debit balance<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>FEATURES OF CASH BOOK<\/strong>:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nA Cash Book has the following features:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Only Cash transactions are recorded in cash book.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It plays a twin role as it is both a book of original entry (Journal) as well as a book of final entry.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 All cash transactions are primarily recorded in it as soon as they take place that is why it is considered as a book of original entry. On the other hand, the cash aspect of all cash transactions is finally recorded in the Cash Book.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 A Cash Book is also a Ledger this is one of the reasons to consider it as a book of final entry.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Only one aspect of cash transaction is posted to the ledger account.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">6.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Since the Cash Book is the substitute for Cash A\/c, no Cash A\/c is opened in the ledger.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">7.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 It has two equal sides one is left hand side, which is called as the debit side and the other side is right hand side (credit side).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">8.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 All the cash receipts of the business are recorded on the debit side of cash book and all the payments related items on the credit side of cash book.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">9.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The difference between the total of left hand side and right hand side shows cash in hand.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">10.\u00a0 The balance of cash book can be verified by accountant by counting actual cash in the cash box.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">11.\u00a0 Cash book always shows debit balance. It can never show credit balance.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">12.\u00a0 Unlike any other account, cash book is balanced daily.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>ADVANTAGES<\/strong>:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Generally cash transactions are numerous. \u201cWhat is credit transaction today will be cash transactions tomorrow\u201d. In other words, all credit transactions are finally settled by cash. If like all other transactions cash transactions are also recorded primarily in Journal, the cash aspect of the transactions will be required to be posted to Cash A\/C, in the Ledger separately and this becomes time consuming exercise and expensive, this is for the reason company\u201fs prefer to record all cash transactions in a separate book named Cash Book. It is time saving and cheap. Besides this the Cash Book renders the following benefits:<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Daily cash receipts and cash payments are easily ascertained.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Cash in hand at any time can easily be ascertained through Cash Book balance.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Any mistake in the book can be easily detected at the time of verification of cash.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Any defalcation of money can be detected while verifying cash.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Since cash is verified daily, Cash Book is always kept up-to-date.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Cash Book: A Journal or a Ledger?<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">From the above discussion it appears that the Cash Book is the substitute for the Cash Account. In fact, no separate Cash Account is opened in the Ledger, Cash Book serves the purpose of the Cash Account. In the cash book entries can be regarded as one aspect of the Double Entry System whereas the other aspect is posted to the Ledger in the concerned account.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">L.C. Cropper remarked \"Every entry in the Cash Book makes one half of a double entry; the other half of the double entry appears on the opposite side of some account in the Ledger.\"From this angle, 'Cash Book is a Ledger'.\u00a0<\/em><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Similarity of cash book with ledger:<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n(i)\u00a0 \u00a0 Form of cash book resembles with ledger.\r\n\r\n(ii)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Words To and By are used in the ledger.\r\n\r\n(iii)\u00a0 \u00a0 No separate cash and bank account are required in the ledger.\r\n\r\n(iv)\u00a0 \u00a0Cash and bank columns of the cash book are periodically balanced just like ledger accounts.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On the other hand, all cash transactions are primarily recorded in the Cash Book in order of date and thereafter posted to the concerned ledger accounts. Judging from this angle, 'Cash Book is a Journal'. Thus we see that a Cash Book is the 'mixture of Journal and Ledger'.<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em>According to Spicer &amp; Pegler, \"the Cash Book is actually a ledger account, but owing to the large number of entries made therein, it is kept in a separate book, called a Cash Book, which is used also as a book of prime entry.\"<\/em><\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSimilarity of cash book with journal:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">(i)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Cash transactions are recorded in the cash book at the time of origin<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">(ii)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Transactions are recorded date-wise<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">(iii)\u00a0 \u00a0 Cash book contains ledger folio as in the journal<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">(iv)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0Narration is given for each entry<\/p>\r\nSpecimen of Simple Cash Book:\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<table>\r\n<tbody>\r\n<tr>\r\n<td><strong>Date<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>Particulars<\/strong><\/td>\r\n<td><strong>V.

Every business has to make payments involving smaller amount, e.g., carriage, cartage, postage, telegrams, etc. Such payments, by their very nature cannot be made by cheques. It is usual for the business units to maintain a separate cash book to record small payments only. Such acsh book is known as P<em>etty Cash Book.<\/em> The petty cash book is a formal summarization of petty cash expenditures, sorted by date. In most cases, the petty cash book is an actual ledger book, rather than a computer record. Thus, the book is part of a manual record-keeping system. (<em>This will be discuss in detail<\/em> <em>later on<\/em>).<\/p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There are two primary types of entries in the petty cash book, which are a debit to record cash received by the petty cash clerk (usually in a single block of cash at infrequent intervals), and a large number of credits to reflect cash withdrawals from the petty cash fund. These credits can be for such transactions as payments for meals, flowers, office supplies, stamps, and so forth. When the amount of petty cash on\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 1em;text-align: initial\">hand declines to near zero, as is caused by withdrawals for various expenditures, the petty cash clerk then obtains additional cash from the cashier, and records this cash influx as a new debit. The petty cash clerk also turns in a copy of his or her petty cash book to the general ledger accountant or cashier, who creates a journal entry to record how the cash in the petty cash drawer was used. The petty cash book is a useful control over petty cash expenditures, since it forces the petty cash clerk to formally record all cash inflows and cash outflows. To ensure that this is an effective control, the petty cash book should be reviewed periodically by an internal auditor to see if the net total amount of cash available as per the book matches the actual amount of cash on hand in the petty cash drawer. If not, the petty cash clerk may require additional training. The petty cash book has declined in importance, as companies are gradually eliminating all use of petty cash, in favor of using company credit cards.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>Advantages of Petty Cash Book:<\/strong>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Petty cash book is a simple form of recording petty expenses.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This book is simple to prepare.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The chief cashier\u201fs precious time and energy is saved by assigning.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The main cash book and petty cash book are separated from each other on the basis of nature of items to be recorded therein.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The posting from the petty cash book is very easy.

If like all other transactions cash transactions are also recorded primarily in Journal, the cash aspect of the transactions will be required to be posted to Cash A\/C, in the Ledger separately and this becomes time consuming exercise and expensive, this is for the reason company\u201fs prefer to record all cash transactions in a separate book named Cash Book. It is time saving and cheap. Besides this the Cash Book renders the following benefits:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Daily cash receipts and cash payments are easily ascertained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Cash in hand at any time can easily be ascertained through Cash Book balance.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Any mistake in the book can be easily detected at the time of verification of cash.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Any defalcation of money can be detected while verifying cash.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Since cash is verified daily, Cash Book is always kept up-to-date.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Cash Book: A Journal or a Ledger?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">From the above discussion it appears that the Cash Book is the substitute for the Cash Account. In fact, no separate Cash Account is opened in the Ledger, Cash Book serves the purpose of the Cash Account. In the cash book entries can be regarded as one aspect of the Double Entry System whereas the other aspect is posted to the Ledger in the concerned account.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><em style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">L.C. Cropper remarked &#8220;Every entry in the Cash Book makes one half of a double entry; the other half of the double entry appears on the opposite side of some account in the Ledger.&#8221;From this angle, &#8216;Cash Book is a Ledger&#8217;.\u00a0<\/em><span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">Similarity of cash book with ledger:<\/span><\/p>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>(i)\u00a0 \u00a0 Form of cash book resembles with ledger.<\/p>\n<p>(ii)\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Words To and By are used in the ledger.<\/p>\n<p>(iii)\u00a0 \u00a0 No separate cash and bank account are required in the ledger.<\/p>\n<p>(iv)\u00a0 \u00a0Cash and bank columns of the cash book are periodically balanced just like ledger accounts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">On the other hand, all cash transactions are primarily recorded in the Cash Book in order of date and thereafter posted to the concerned ledger accounts. Judging from this angle, &#8216;Cash Book is a Journal&#8217;.

Every business has to make payments involving smaller amount, e.g., carriage, cartage, postage, telegrams, etc. Such payments, by their very nature cannot be made by cheques. It is usual for the business units to maintain a separate cash book to record small payments only. Such acsh book is known as P<em>etty Cash Book.<\/em> The petty cash book is a formal summarization of petty cash expenditures, sorted by date. In most cases, the petty cash book is an actual ledger book, rather than a computer record. Thus, the book is part of a manual record-keeping system. (<em>This will be discuss in detail<\/em> <em>later on<\/em>).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">There are two primary types of entries in the petty cash book, which are a debit to record cash received by the petty cash clerk (usually in a single block of cash at infrequent intervals), and a large number of credits to reflect cash withdrawals from the petty cash fund. These credits can be for such transactions as payments for meals, flowers, office supplies, stamps, and so forth. When the amount of petty cash on\u00a0<span style=\"font-size: 1em;text-align: initial\">hand declines to near zero, as is caused by withdrawals for various expenditures, the petty cash clerk then obtains additional cash from the cashier, and records this cash influx as a new debit. The petty cash clerk also turns in a copy of his or her petty cash book to the general ledger accountant or cashier, who creates a journal entry to record how the cash in the petty cash drawer was used. The petty cash book is a useful control over petty cash expenditures, since it forces the petty cash clerk to formally record all cash inflows and cash outflows. To ensure that this is an effective control, the petty cash book should be reviewed periodically by an internal auditor to see if the net total amount of cash available as per the book matches the actual amount of cash on hand in the petty cash drawer. If not, the petty cash clerk may require additional training. The petty cash book has declined in importance, as companies are gradually eliminating all use of petty cash, in favor of using company credit cards.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Advantages of Petty Cash Book:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Petty cash book is a simple form of recording petty expenses.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 This book is simple to prepare.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The chief cashier\u201fs precious time and energy is saved by assigning.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">4.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The main cash book and petty cash book are separated from each other on the basis of nature of items to be recorded therein.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">5.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The posting from the petty cash book is very easy.

It is given to encourage prompt payment of debts. Cash discount which is given by the trader to its customers is known as Discount allowed. Cash discount is allowed to the customers to encourage prompt payment of their debts. Discount allowed is recorded in the discount column on the debit side of the triple column Cash Book and posted individually to the credit side of the debtors accounts to which they relate. Cash discount received by the trader from its supplier is known as Discount received. The trader ends up paying less by the amount of discount received. Discount received is recorded in the discount column on the credit side of the triple column Cash Book and posted individually to the debit side of the creditors accounts to which they relate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>SUMMARY:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Cash book is considered as a book of original entry as well as final entry and Cash Book serves dual role of a ledger as well as journal. It is the account which keeps track of all the cash transactions of the business. Cash book always shows debit balance. It can never show credit balance and it helps to ascertain daily cash receipts and cash payments. The amount of cash received is recorded on the debit side in amount column and the amount of cash paid is recorded on the credit side in amount column. The date of transaction in cash book is written in two lines. There are different types of cash book viz., Simple cash book, two column cash book, three column cash book and petty cash book. The petty cash book is a formal summarization of petty cash expenditures, sorted by date. When cheques are received from customers and deposited on the same date they are entered in the bank column of the Cash Book. If they are sent to the bank at a later date, it becomes deposit of money into bank and, therefore, a \u201e<em>contra<\/em>\u201f entry.\u00a0<span style=\"text-align: initial;font-size: 1em\">A cash discount is a deduction from the amount due and it is given to encourage prompt payment of debts.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>you can view video on Cash Book<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ZpGipvYcPFE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-120\" src=\"http:\/\/epgpbooks.inflibnet.ac.in\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/download.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"36\" height=\"36\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><strong>Few suggested readings to learn more about Cash book:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: justify\">Tulsian .
