Explanation

Write True or False for Each of the Following Statements
	True/False
(I) Pay in Slip is used to withdraw cash from bank.	False

(III) Cash withdrawn from bank for personal use is not a contra entry.	True

Pay in Slip is used to deposit either cash or cheque of customers for collection of payments in the bank account.
Debit side of cash book represents receipts and credit side represents payments of cash transactions.
Cash withdrawn from bank for personal use is debited to Drawings A/c and not cash A/c. So, it will be a contra entry because both Cash A/c and Bank A/c are not involved.
Bank Reconciliation Statement is not a part of double entry system. It is mere a statement prepared to reconcile the bank balances shown by the cash book and that by the bank statement.
