Mac Mac Duds Co., a distributor of wellness equipment, decided to establish P20,000 as the
company’s imprest system of petty cash fund. The fund was established for day-to-day small
expenses, where issuing checks is impracticable. The date of establishment of fund is
September 1, 201A.

all expenditures shown above. A check worth P10,600 was issued to replenish the petty
cash fund.
