A company wrote a check for $500 on December 31 to pay a supplier but did not mail it until January 3.

Should this check be considered an outstanding check on the December 31 bank reconciliation?

  1. Yes, because the check was written and recorded in the journal on December 31
  2. No, because the company still has physical custody and control of the cash
  3. No, because it is considered a post-dated check
  4. Yes, because it will eventually clear the bank
