The bank statement showed a balance of $5,419 as of March 31. The bank statement included a service charge of $4.10 with the date of March 29. In matching the canceled checks and record of deposits with the stubs, it was discovered that Check No. 456, a payment on account to Office Suppliers, Inc., for $39 was erroneously recorded on the stub as $93. This caused the bank balance on that stub and those following to be $54 too small. It was also discovered that an ATM withdrawal of $100 for personal use was not recorded on the books.
Kuhn maintains a $200 petty cash fund. His petty cash payments record showed the following totals at the end of March of the current year:
