Formula
Expected cash = Opening float + Cash sales − Cash paid out
Variance = Counted cash − Expected cashThis is a planning aid only. Investigate any variance with the actual day records: mixed payments, refunds, corrections, and timing differences explain most gaps. The billing system’s day-end report is the source of truth.

Most gaps come from mixed payments, refunds, corrections, and timing differences — not fraud. A good day-end report separates sales from collections and shows the payment-mode split so the owner can explain the drawer.
