  3. CHAPTER 6-1 • More money… more problems! • Businesses use cash MOST often in transactions • Must be EXTREMELY careful in recording these transactions

  4. Ch 6-1: Checking Accounts • Check: A business form ordering a bank to pay cash from a bank account • Checking Account: A bank account from which payments can be ordered by a depositor. • Banks may pay interest on funds deposited. • To open account, the depositor(s) must: • Sign a signature card: Authorizes person(s) that may sign checks for the business • Use bank forms to complete transactions

  5. Check information: • Date • Name • Check Number - Magnetic Ink Characters • ABA number - identifies the bank

  6. Depositing Cash • Deposit slip – form prepared each time cash and/or checks are placed in account • No universal ‘deposit slip’ • Each bank’s is similar, but different • Deposit slips are different to fit each bank’s recording machine

  7. DEPOSITING CASH • 63-108 – Bank • $10,000 – amount • Aug 1 20-- – D10000.00 RDS – printed verification that total was deposited and accepted by RDS (bank employee)

  10. Endorsements • Transfer ownership of a check • Contains a signature or stamp on back of check • Should be signed exactly as name is stated on front of check • Are confined to back of check at the top • Federal regulations limit amount of space at top of check • Endorsing a check guarantees payment • If bank does not receive payment from person who signed the FRONT of the check, each endorser is individually responsible for payment • Should be written in ink

  11. Three Types of Endorsements • 1. Blank - signature only • Should only be used when person is at the bank ready to cash/deposit • Why? • 2. Special Endorsements (AKA Full endorsements) - restricts who can cash, deposit, or transfer check. • Pay to the order of __________

  12. Types of Endorsements • Restrictive Endorsements - limit the use of the check. It can no longer be transferred. • Prevents unauthorized person from cashing if lost or stolen • Most companies use restrictive endorsements. • FYI- FDIC insures up to $100,000 per depositor • Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
