2. Define petty cash fund.
Explain the importance of petty cash fund.
Ans. Petty cash is the
amount of cash set aside to meet the expenses of small amount. The petty cash
book is a book used for recording petty payments. In offices of Government of
Nepal, a specific fund is created for small amount of payments which is known
as petty cash fund. \
Importance of Petty
Cash Fund
The following are the
importance of petty cash fund:
a. Minimizes the workload: Petty cash fund minimizes the burden of office. The responsibility to
maintain a petty cash fund account is entrusted to the petty cashier. S/He makes
payment of small expenditures that minimizes the workload of chief cashier.
b. Maintains control
over small payments: Petty cashier has to record the amount of expenses on Cash
Payment Slips along with the signature of the payee. This will be the primary
document of evidence to maintain the record in the petty cash book. Besides, Cash
Payment Slip must be maintained in
chronological order. It helps to maintain strong control over small payments of
office.
c. Convenient for
small payments: Petty cash fund makes it convenient to make payments of small
expenses. In practice, it is very inconvenient to issue cheques for these payments both from a cost and time point of view. Besides, the bank can’t be made obliged to
for such payments. Hence, it saves time for the Chief Cashier and expenses of an
office.
d. Brings
systematization in accounting: The new accounting system has developed various
forms and statements to regulate the operation of petty cash. Some forms used
in offices are Cash payment slip, cash reimbursement demand form, and cash
control statement. The appropriate use of these forms and statements
facilitates to bring a distinct system in the accounting procedures of the office.
