10. What is petty cash book? How it is prepared? 3
Ans) Businesses generally keep small amounts of cash to meet small miscellaneous payments
such as entertainment expenses and stationery costs. Such payments are generally recorded in
the book called as petty cash. It is prepared by imprest system whereby an amount is paid in
advance called as 'Float' & it is a fixed amount. This is the maximum amount of cash that can
be held at any time. Each time cash level runs low, the petty cash imprest is injected with cash
by drawing a cheque. The amount of reimbursement is equal to the expenses paid through
petty cash since the time of last reimbursement. Petty cash balance after reimbursement reverts
to back to the level of the float.
