    Bank Reconciliation, accounting homework help

    /in /by

    What is the purpose of a bank reconciliation?  What are the reasons for differences between the cash reported in the accounting records, and the cash balance in the bank statements? 

    Let your peers know what happens to the discrepancies between the book balance and the bank balance.  Could these differences just be written off?

    Guided Response:

    A bank reconciliation reconciles the bank account balance per the books to the actual bank balance.  Outstanding checks, deposits in transit, and bank errors are reasons there are differences between the cash reported in the accounting records and the cash balance in the bank statements.

    Must reference chapters and in-text used as:

    K Wainwright, S. (Ed.). (2012). Principles of Accounting: Volume I . San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.

    Psychology, Sociology and Career Counseling Discussion Questions

    /in , /by

    Please answer each of the following questions, individually numbered, with a 2 paragraph response and at least one citation.

    1. Go to this website and take the Race Implicit Association Test https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html. After you have received your results, answer the following questions: How do you feel about your results (you do not have to share what they are)? Due to the fact that most people have some unconscious racial bias, explain whether given the same credentials, you think two candidates, of two different races, with an identical resume, have an equal chance at getting hired. Why or why not?

    2.Super’s theory is very complex. Explain the basics of the theory as if you were educating a 15-year-old seeking career advice. After you have provided a response, reply to another classmate’s response by asking them a challenging question about his or her explanation.

    3. It is not unusual to hear an adult tell a child, “You can grow up to be anything you want to be.” Considering the influence of socioeconomic status on career development, does this actually appear realistic? Is there anything that individuals, society, or the government could do in order to help this statement be true for everyone? If no, why? If yes, what?
