Explanation:

The bank reconciliation is one done between the balance per the books and balance per the bank statement. This is usually as a result of transactions known as reconciling items.

These are items that have either been recognized in books but yet to be recorded by the bank or vice versa, transactions recorded wrongly by one of the parties etc.

The adjusted cash balance is the balance after all the transactions omitted from the cash balance have been considered.

Deposits in transit at month-end $ 1,900  - No adjustments required

Outstanding checks at month-end $ 570 - No adjustment required

Bank service charges $ 30 - To be deducted

EFT automatically deducted monthly, not yet recorded by Maxi $ 480 - To be deducted

An NSF check returned on a customer account $ 315 - To be deducted

Adjusted cash balance = $5,225 - $30 -$480 - $315

=$4400
