Solution

The correct option is C (III) only is correct.
While preparing an adjusted cash book, errors, omissions or entries which affect the cash book are to be considered. When bank collects dividend on the customers behalf , this entry requires adjustment in the cash book and so it would be debited to the cash book.
But, when bank reconciliation statement is being prepared and if adjusted cash book is the starting then the above adjustment should not be taken into consideration again as it has been already adjusted.
So, if bank reconciliation statement is prepared without adjusting cash book only then the dividend collected by bank will be added.
