The bank gives to its customers a pass book or a statement of account. Pass book or statement of account is a copy of the customers account in the books of the bank. The bank keeps the customer informed of the entries made in its books. The customer is expected to compare the pass book with the cash book (bank columns) and to inform the bank immediately regarding the errors that may have come to his notice.
The statement of account is similar to the pass book with the only difference that it is on loose sheet. The statement of account is sent by the bank to the customer of its own whereas it is the customer's duty to send the pass book to the bank for being written up-to-date. Recording banking transactions Banking transactions are recorded in three column cash book. However, jf the triple column cash book is not maintained the transactions would be journalized.
