Discrepancy in ledger accounts balance and bank statements arises on account of various reasons. Many a times, a business issues checks and immediately deducts them from the ledger. But some of the checks may not get encashed by the receiver before the end of the month.

Also, the bank charges and interest credit by the bank does not get recorded in the ledger.
