4. Flowcharting
 
A company employs a manual process for its transactions.  Here are the procedures
followed by the cashier.  
 
The cashier receives cash payment from the customer, and issues an Official
Receipt in three copies. The original goes to the paying customer, the duplicate
copy goes to Accounting and the third copy is kept as a stub copy.
At the end of the day, the cashier prepares a collection report showing a summary
of all the Official Receipts issued and the amount, with the total collection during
the day.  The following day, the cashier deposits the total amount collected to the
bank account of the company.  After depositing, the cashier turns over to the
Accounting Department the collection report with the supporting Official
Receipts (accounting copy) and deposit slips.  
Prepare a flowchart for the above mentioned cashiering procedures.
