Answer:

$10,181

Explanation:

Given that,

Unadjusted Cash Balance as of may 31 = $9,58

Interest revenue = $18

Note Collected by Bank = $700

NSF check = $98

Bank service charges = $25

Outstanding checks = $1,461

deposits in transit as of May 31 = $210

True Cash Balance as of May 31:

= Unadjusted Cash Balance as of may 31 + Interest Earned + Note Collected by Bank - NSF check - Bank charges

= $9,586 + $18 + $700 - $98 - $25

= $10,304 - $123

= $10,181
