Monday, April 2, 19 -

Recapitulation And Proof

Receiving Teller's Daily Check Sheet and Proof. - A great variety of forms of this sheet is used by banks. In some cases the sheet exhibits only the total of the deposit tickets and the aggregate receipts of the day. In other cases it is in the form of a cash book, the receipts in currency, clearings, collection and exchange, out-of-town items, etc., being separated by the use of special columns. The kind of record required would always depend upon the routine of the bank's business.

The Duties of the Receiving Teller may be specified as follows:

1. He receives the deposits of customers.

2. He writes certificates of deposit and cashier's checks.

3. He enters deposits in the customers' pass books.

4. He classifies the items received for deposit.

Certificates of Deposit. - Certificates of deposit are receipts issued by a bank to persons making temporary deposits. They are negotiable and pass everywhere as cash. They are taken from a book resembling the ordinary check book, a stub showing the number, date, amount, payee, etc., being retained by the bank. The person to whom a certificate is issued is required to write his name on the stub of the certificate of deposit book in order that the proper comparisons may be made when the certificate is presented for payment. These certificates may bear interest or not, depending on the circumstances.

Cashier

Cashier's Checks. - Cashier's checks are quite similar to the ordinary checks of customers, except that they are signed by the cashier of the bank on whom they are drawn. They are sometimes used instead of bank drafts and in paying the proceeds of paper discounted, but are more frequently employed in paying the general expenses of the bank, except small incidental items, which are usually paid by means of charge tickets signed by the cashier.
