Notification by the bank that a deposited customer check was returned NSF requires that the company make the following adjusting entry:Group of answer choicesCash Accounts Receivable No adjusting entry is necessary.Accounts Receivable Cash Miscellaneous Expense Accounts Receivable
Solution
The correct adjusting entry when a deposited customer check is returned NSF (Non-Sufficient Funds) would be:
Accounts Receivable Cash
This is because the bank has notified the company that the customer's check has bounced due to insufficient funds in their account. Therefore, the company needs to debit (increase) Accounts Receivable to reflect the amount that is still owed by the customer, and credit (decrease) Cash to reverse the initial recognition of the payment.
