COMPREHENSIVE PROBLEM
Assignment

Blessed Company is a very successful entity engaged in the manufacturing and selling of high
fashion clothing. In July of 2010, the long-time and trustworthy accountant of Blessed resigned
prompting the management to hire an inexperienced accountant for the time being.

After three months of observing the newly hired accountant, the president of Blessed suspects
that the accountant is stealing money from the company. To confirm his speculation, he hired
you to audit the entity’s cash in bank accounts at year end.

In connection with your examination, Blessed Company presented to you the following
information regarding its cash in bank account for the month of December 2010:
 Balances per bank statements: November 30, P215,600 and December 31, P230,400.
 Balances of cash in bank account in company books: November 30, P165,450 and
December 31, P226,800.
 Total receipts per book were P2,221,900 of which P12,100 was paid in cash to a creditor
on December 24.

 Outstanding checks were: November 30, P26,750 and December 31, P19,300 of which
