Methods for receiving proceeds to a current account
In accounting, revenue is income received from ordinary activities - from the sale of products and goods, performance of work, provision of services (clause 2, 5 of PBU 9/99).
Revenue recognition is always reflected by an entry in the credit of account 90 “Sales”, subaccount “Revenue”. Debit shows the amount owed by the buyer. That is, the wiring is like this:
- Debit 62 “Settlements with buyers and customers” Credit 90, subaccount “Revenue”
.
But the proceeds can be transferred to the current account in different ways.
Methods for receipt of proceeds to the current account may be as follows:
- transfer from the counterparty's current account;
- cash from the cash register;
- via terminal;
- through collection.
That's why the wiring will be different.
Important nuances
- The company retains a receipt as confirmation. It must have a signature and stamp made by an employee of the collection service.
- Transferring money to the collector using a forwarding slip involves issuing a cash receipt order (COS) in the name of the employee who is handing over the package of cash. This document is drawn up on the KO-2 form established by the State Statistics Committee (Resolution No. 88 of 1998).
- Force majeure circumstances may occur. For example, loss of cash by cash collection service employees. Therefore, accounting entries should always show the real state of affairs. When the delivery of money to the collector is recorded as an accounting entry and the documents are drawn up correctly, it will be easier to compensate for the damage.

The proceeds came from the current account
Most often, companies and individual entrepreneurs pay each other non-cash - through current accounts. If proceeds from the sale of products (services, works) are transferred to the current account, the posting will be as follows:
- Debit 51 (52) Credit 62
When revenue is received in foreign currency, account 52 “Currency accounts” is used in accounting instead of account 51 “Currency accounts”. It reflects the availability and movement of funds in foreign currency in the company’s foreign currency accounts opened in banks of the Russian Federation and abroad.
Rules and procedure for collecting cash from the cash desk - registration, accounting, postings
Cash collection is often referred to as the procedure of transportation, the physical movement of cash from one place to another.
A typical example is the transfer of cash proceeds from retail outlets to the servicing financial institution. As a rule, in such situations we are talking about transporting fairly large amounts of cash.
This is a serious and responsible operation, therefore it is always carried out according to certain rules, strictly regulated by the regulatory documents of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.
Cash collection involves performing specific actions.
This applies to the procedure itself, its documentation and accounting.
The proceeds came from the cash register
The company’s revenue is not always transferred immediately to its current account. In some cases, it arrives at the cash desk in the form of cash. In this case, the wiring will be as follows:
- Debit 5o “Cash” Credit 62
- proceeds have been received at the cash desk;
- cash is deposited in the bank.
If, by law, a company is not exempt from operating cash register systems, then in case of cash payments it must use an online cash register registered with the Federal Tax Service.
You also need to remember about the cash limit at the cash register. The company calculates the cash limit independently.

What are cash transactions
Cash transactions mean operations in which an organization issues and accepts cash in the form of banknotes or coins. The organization can issue and accept funds to both legal entities and individuals. Conducting cash transactions is regulated by the procedure described by the Tax Code of the Russian Federation.
The main cash operations include receiving and issuing cash, storing funds in the cash register and transferring them to the bank. All operations are carried out subject to mandatory compliance with the cash limit, the amount of which is determined by each enterprise individually and recorded in the relevant documents.
The following receipts can be made to the cash desk:
- payment by the buyer (customer) for goods, services, work;
- return of funds by an accountable person previously issued for business needs or travel expenses;
- revenue from the sale of products in a retail chain;
- loan settlements;
- payment of interest on shares;
- refund by the supplier;
- receipt of funds purchased by the organization from the bank.
The basis for depositing cash into the cash register is a cash receipt order.
Funds can be disbursed from the cash register for the following purposes:
- payment of remuneration to employees (wages, bonuses, bonuses, etc.);
- payment for goods, works, services (both in the form of an advance payment and for goods actually received);
- insurance compensation, the payment of which is provided for in the insurance contract;
- issuing funds to employees on account (both for household needs and for travel expenses).
Only funds received as proceeds from sold goods (works, services) can be issued from the cash register. If the organization is an intermediary or is engaged in commission trading, then all funds received for payment in favor of third parties must be transferred to the bank.
The basis for issuing cash from the cash register is an expense cash order.
All cash transactions must be reflected in the cash book.
Revenue was received through the terminal
Instead of making daily trips to the bank to deposit cash, you can deposit it into a bank terminal. To do this, the company enters into an agreement with the bank, which issues it a special access code, which the cashier enters when depositing cash.
When revenue is credited to the account through the terminal, you need to use account 57 “Transfers in transit.” It serves to reflect information about the movement of funds that have not yet been credited to the organization’s current account.
The postings in this case will be as follows:
- Debit 57 “Transfers in transit” Credit 62
- payment has been received for products (work, services) through a terminal or bank card;
- funds are credited to the current account.
With this method of crediting revenue, the bank charges a commission, which is calculated by posting:
- Debit 91 “Other income and expenses” Credit 57
.
As you can see, the money is transferred to the current account minus this commission.
Postings for basic cash transactions
To account for cash in the cash register, as well as to reflect cash turnover, use account 50.
Let's look at the basic cash register transactions using examples.
Cash receipts and write-offs
The issuance of funds to employees on account, as well as the issuance of wages, are the most common basis for the receipt of funds from the bank for their subsequent write-off.
Receipt of cash to the cash desk can be carried out by an accountable person when returning the balance of funds that were not used for business needs or during a business trip.

68.02 | 19 | The VAT amount is accepted for deduction | RUB 1,501 | Payment receipt, invoice |

Rules and procedures for cash in an enterprise
There are generally binding legal norms that clearly regulate the procedure for cash collection in an organization.
These rules, as mentioned earlier, must be strictly observed by all participants in this process - the cashier of the enterprise transferring cash, and the collector delivering the transferred money to the bank.
In addition, collection rules may be regulated by a signed agreement on the provision of collection services, which, for example, provides for the frequency of transfer of funds and other specific conditions.
The cash collection procedure itself involves the sequential performance of the following actions by its participants:
- The transferred cash is prepared by the cashier of the business entity for dispatch. At this stage, a thorough counting and packaging of funds are carried out, which are then placed in bags. A set of necessary documents is prepared in several copies. The completed papers are also placed in collection bags with money. This stage ends with the sealing of bags to be handed over to collectors.
- Cash packed in bags is handed over to the collector. This action is performed by the cashier of the transferring organization in a special room. The auditor, financial controller, chief accountant, and head of the organization have the right to control this procedure. The cashier checks the identity and papers of the collector, enters information into the appearance card, provides a sample of the seal, and gives the bag with money and documentation to the collector. The collector verifies his identity, presents the necessary papers to the cashier and returns empty bags, accepts bags with money, checks the serviceability of seals, verifies document data, signs and dates the receipt, and puts a stamp.
- Transportation (physical movement, transportation) of transferred funds directly to the servicing bank. This procedure is carried out by an authorized collector along a route developed and approved in advance.
- Delivery and acceptance of bags with cash at a financial institution. The collector transfers the bags of money to the servicing bank, which duly accepts these funds. The acceptance procedure is carried out according to established rules. If it is completed successfully, the collector’s full financial responsibility for the transferred money ceases.
- The transferred cash is accepted and received by a bank employee who checks the bags, the integrity of the seals, and the correctness of the information in the accompanying papers.
Documenting
In order to correctly transfer cash to the collector for transportation to the bank, the cashier draws up the following documentation:
- The accompanying statement in three copies (one - in the bag, the second - to the cashier, the third - to the collector);
- a register of completed transactions (placed in a bag), the amount of which must correspond to the amount of the statement;
- money bag invoice;
- receipt for money bag.
The collector verifies his identity, presents a power of attorney, and gives the cashier an appearance card to fill out.
The cashier enters the necessary information into the appearance card and returns it to the collector. Subsequently, this card is checked by a bank employee and compared with the cash order.
Accounting and postings
In the accounting of a business entity that transfers cash to the bank through collection, certain correspondence accounts are used, accompanied by the preparation of the necessary documents:
Operation | Debit | Credit | Document |
The cashier handed over the cash to the collector | 57 | 50 | RKO, receipt |
The collected amount is credited to the bank account | 51 | 57 | Bank account statement |
The corresponding commission has been paid to the bank | 91 | 51 | Bank account statement |
