Answer
View full question & answer→Solution is as follows:


Note: Cheque dated 15th April, 2019 issued to M & Co. dishonoured will have no impact as this statement is as on 31st March 2019.



Note: In Cash Book cheque received from G. Basu & Co is debited with ₹ 1,000 and at the time of dishonour entry is reversed by crediting G. Basu & Co with ₹ 1,000. Therefore its net effect is nil in Cash Book.
\
Note: Overdraft balance has credit balance but taken as debit balance, so to correct the error credit cash book by double amount.
Note: Point (vii) will have no affect on the statement as error in recording cash deposit entry is already rectified.
