Clearance Register

Explanation:
Cash receipts which could not be identified, or for which accounting treatment could not be determined, at time of collection are applied to appropriate accounts by this entry. Varying circumstances determine the clearance of each transaction, but as each item or group of items is cleared it is entered in the Clearance Register and applied to appropriate accounts.
Cash overages also are cleared in this register. These items should be cleared as revenue at least once each quarter.
