Cevap: 13750 NGN
Cevap
The bank overdraft per the Bank Statement as at 31st December 2025 is NGN 13,750.
To find the Bank Statement balance, first adjust the Cash Book overdraft of NGN 14,500. Add omitted payments and corrections (bank charges NGN 2,050, cheque under-recording NGN 1,800, standing order NGN 2,000, dishonoured cheque NGN 1,500) to get an overdraft subtotal of NGN 21,850. Subtract the direct credit of NGN 5,400 to obtain an Adjusted Cash Book overdraft of NGN 16,450. Reconciling to the bank statement: add uncredited lodgements of NGN 6,200 and subtract unpresented cheques of NGN 8,900, yielding a Bank Statement overdraft of NGN 13,750.
