Undeposited Funds
What are Undeposited Funds?
Undeposited Funds refer to amounts received from customers that have not yet been deposited into a company's bank account. These funds are typically held temporarily in an intermediate account until they are recorded in the bank account to facilitate better tracking and reconciliation.
Short Description: Accounts receivable not yet deposited into a bank account.
- Cash Receipts: Collecting payment from clients by cash, checks, or credit cards.
- Temporary Holding: Place where cash flows through before reaching the bank account.
- Reconciliation: Helps maintain accurate account records and simplifies bank statement reconciliation by grouping deposits.
This process ensures a clear distinction between cash on hand and deposited amounts, improving financial management and planning.
