Cash Receipts Procedures
At Bait 'n Reel, the entire basement has been converted into a mail room. The postmaster has been faithfully working for the company for over five years and has the duty of collect- ing all incoming mail. For customer payments, he opens the envelope collects the customer's check and remittance advice, and reconciles the two documents. To ensure that payments are not lost, he also creates two copies of a remittance list. One copy of this remittance list is sent to the department along with the corresponding remittance advices. The other copy of the remittance list accompanies the checks to the cash receipts department
