Solution

The correct option is A added
Cheques issued but not presented are recorded in the cash book first. They are recorded by the bank in the pass book only when such cheques are cleared by the bank. Thus, when we take overdraft balance as per pass book as the starting point to prepare bank reconciliation statement, cheques issued but not presented should be added to arrive at the balance as per cash book and reconcile the two balances.
