the credit bal. of rs. 1500 on page 10 of the passbook was recorded on page 11 as a debit balance .. what is the entry for this in brs ? urgent
 

 Dear Student,

If BRS is prepared taking Balance as per Cash Book then Rs 3,000 would be shown under Minus Item as follows:

 
Bank Reconciliation Statement as on..
S. No. Particulars Plus Items (Rs) Minus Items (Rs)
  Balance as per the Cash Book  XXX  
  Less: credit bal. of rs. 1500 on page 10 of the passbook was recorded on page 11 as a debit balance      (3,000)
     XXX  (3,000)
       

But If BRS is prepared taking Balance as per Pass Book then Rs 3,000 would be shown under Plus Item as follows:
 
Bank Reconciliation Statement as on..
S. No. Particulars Plus Items (Rs) Minus Items (Rs)
  Balance as per the Pass Book  XXX  
  Add: credit bal. of rs. 1500 on page 10 of the passbook was recorded on page 11 as a debit balance   3,000  
       

Note: 3,000 is deducted or added to cover up the wrong entry of Rs 1,500.

Regards,

Entry depends upon the balance given in the question.

If cash book balance is given it is minus item and if passbook balance is given it is a plus item.
