Question

Nell wrote a check for $48 to pay her monthly water bill, but when balabcing her checkbook, she accidentally recorded it as a credit rather than as a debit. How will her check register compare to her monthly bank statement when she receives it?

Answer 1

When Nell goes to reconcile her bank statement, she will find the error will cause her to have $96.00 more than her true balance. Since she did not deduct the 48, but instead added 48, that equates to a 96 dollar mistake.

We know this because the difference from -48 to 48 on a number line is 96 spaces.

Answer 2

Answer:

The balance in her check register will be $96 over the balance on her bank statement
