Fictional acceptance test

Fictional statement: operating 42000, investing -18000 and financing -9000 sum to 15000. Beginning cash 25000 and ending cash 40000 also change by 15000. Expected bridge difference: 0.

Review gates and limits

Do not infer transaction classifications from descriptions alone. Confirm scope and currency effects with the accountant.
