Answer:

The answer is: $4,160

Explanation:

To calculate Dewitt Company's adjusted cash balance per books we must add: cash balance per book + notes and interest collected. Then we subtract bank service charges and NSF check.

adjusted cash balance per books = ($3,500 + $850) - ($20 + $170) =

adjusted cash balance per books = $4,350 - $190 = $4,160

The adjusted cash balance per books doesn't include deposits in transit or outstanding checks (these are included in cash balance reconciled per bank statement).
