Question

Peterson Company's general ledger shows a cash balance of $7,600 on May 31. May cash receipts of $1,270, included in the general ledger balance, are placed in the night depository at the bank on May 31 and processed by the bank on June 1. The bank statement dated May 31 shows an NSF check for $120 and a service fee of $80. The bank processes all checks written by the company by May 31 and lists them on the bank statement, except for one check totaling $1,770. The bank statement shows a balance of $7,900 on May 31.
