Solution

The correct option is A Deducted
Cheques issued but not presented for payment 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 start by taking favourable balance as per pass book as the starting point, cheques issued but not presented should be deducted in order to arrive at the balance as per cash book and reconcile the two balances.
