AUDIT OF CASH

DON CARLO CAVINA SCHOOL


1st Semester SY 20-21
APPLIED AUDITING

PROBLEM NO. 1:
The accountant of Santiago Company is in the process of preparing the company’s financial statements
for the year ended December 31, 2018. He is trying to determine the correct balance of cash and cash
equivalents to be reported as a current asset in the statement of financial position. The following items
are being considered:
 Balances in the company’s accounts at the Metropolitan Bank:
 Current account P81,000
 Savings account P132,000
 Undeposited customer checks of P22,200 (including a customer check dated January 2, 2019, for
P3,000).
 Currency and coins on hand of P3,480.
 Savings account at the Northern Philippines Bank with a balance of P2,400,000. This account is
being used to accumulate cash for future plant expansion (in 2019).
 Petty cash of P4,000 (currency of P1,200 and unreplenished vouchers for P2,800).
 P120,000 in a current account at the Northern Philippines Bank. This represents a 20%
compensating balance for P600,000 loan with the bank. Santiago Company is legally restricted to
withdraw the funds until the loan is due in 2021. (NCA)
 Treasury bills:
 Two-month maturity bills P90,000
 Seven-month bills P120,000
 Time deposit (placement term is 2 months) P100,000

What total amount of cash and cash equivalents should be reported under current assets?
A. P547,480
B. P427,480
C. P430,280
D. P327,480
SOLUTION 1:
Savings and current accounts - Metropolitan Bank
("132,000 + P81,OOO) P213,000
Undeposited customer checks (P22,200 — P3,OOO) 19,200
Currency and coins on hand 3,480
Petty cash 1,200
Two-month treasury bills 90,000
Time deposit 100,000
Total cash and cash equivalents P426.880
Notes:
1. The P3,000 postdated customer check will not be accepted by the bank when presented either for
encashment or deposit. This should be reverted to accounts receivable.
2. The P2,400,000 cash balance at Northern Philippines Bank is being maintained for future plant
expansion. Thus, it is unavailable for use in current operations or payment of current liabilities. The
amount should be shown as part of investments in the noncurrent assets section of the statement of
financial position.
3. The P120,000 in ä current account at the Northern Philippines Bank which represents a compensating
balance is legally restricted and is being held against a long-term borrowing. Hence, this Should be
classified as investment or other asset in the noncurrent assets section of the statement of financial
position.
4. The 7-month treasury bills are not cash equivalents and should be shown as part of short-term
investments in the current assets section of the statement of financial position.
PAS 7 defines "cash equivalents" as short-term, highly liquid investments that are readily convertible to
known amounts of cash and which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value. These
normally include short-term investments with maturities of three months or less from the date of
acquisition.
