1 Math of Finance Semester 1 Unit 2 Page 1 of 19 Name: Date: Unit 2.1 Checking Accounts Use your book or the internet to find the following definitions: Account balance: Deposit: Withdrawal: Direct deposit: ETF: Insufficient funds: Maintenance fee: ATM fees: Juliane has a balance of $1350 in her checking account. She deposits a check for $ and withdraws $200. What is her balance after the transactions? $ The account balance is $ after the transactions. 1. Your checking account balance is $ If you deposit 3 checks for $50, $56.14 and $ and withdraw $100 in cash, what is your new account balance? 2.

Reconciling a bank statement with your checking book register is a means to make sure that your records are in line with the bank s records. Use your book or the internet to find the following definitions and explain what the terms mean in your own words: Starting balance: Ending balance: Outstanding checks: Outstanding deposits:

4 Math of Finance Semester 1 Unit 2 Page 4 of 19 Below are your check register and your bank statement. Reconcile your check register with your bank statement. Number Date Description of Transaction Debit (-) Credit (+) Balance Previous Balance $ /5/12 Publix $26.76 $ /7/12 Kroger $45.29 $ /15/12 ATM $ $ /17/12 Deposit pay check $ $ /25/12 BestBuys $ $ DATE DESCRIPTION CHECK NUMBER AMOUNT BALANCE 2/1/12 Starting Balance /5/12 Withdrawal /7/12 Withdrawal /15/12 Withdrawal /17/12 Deposit l /29/12 Service Charge /29/12 Ending Balance Solution: The ending balances of the check register and bank statement do not match. The reason is you wrote a check which is outstanding (#105) and you did not include the bank service fee. In order to match the records you have to subtract the service fee ($5.00) from your check register balance and subtract the outstanding check ($103.21) from your ending balance of your bank statement Subtract $5.00 from your check register balance Subtract $ from your bank statement balance Now both statements match
