Step-by-step solution

3 steps
  1. The opening balance is One thousand three hundred ninety-six rand and ninety-eight cents.

  2. Debit refers to money leaving the account, which reduces the balance (e.g., withdrawals, payments, fees). Credit refers to money entering the account, which increases the balance (e.g., deposits, refunds).

  3. Step 1: Identify all bank charges.

    • Cash deposit fee: R48,00
    • ATM charge (5/8): R7,50
    • ATM charge (6/8): R7,50
    • ATM charge (7/8): R0,00 (nil)
  1. Sum the charges.

    $$
    \text{Total bank charges} = \text{R}48,00 + \text{R}7,50 + \text{R}7,50 + \text{R}0,00
    $$
    $$
    \text{Total bank charges} = \boxed{\text{R}63,00}
    $$
    

    4. On 4/8, R765,56 was deposited into the account. It was for a Medical Aid refund.

    1. The ATM withdrawal on 7/8 might have a nil (zero) charge because Pule could be within a certain number of free withdrawals allowed by the bank, or it was an ATM belonging to Pule's own bank, which often offers free transactions.

    2. Step 1: Calculate A, the balance on 3/08.

      Balance after Nu-metro movies=R1 396,98−R72,00=R1 324,98\text{Balance after Nu-metro movies} = \text{R}1\,396,98 - \text{R}72,00 = \text{R}1\,324,98 A=R1 324,98−R300,00\text{A} = \text{R}1\,324,98 - \text{R}300,00 A=R1 024,98\text{A} = \boxed{\text{R}1\,024,98}
  2. Write A in words.

    **One thousand twenty-four rand and ninety-eight cents**.
    

    7. Step 1: Calculate the balance after the Insurance debit order. Balance after Insurance debit order=R3 976,98−R137,98=R3 839,00 \text{Balance after Insurance debit order} = \text{R}3\,976,98 - \text{R}137,98 = \text{R}3\,839,00

  3. Calculate B, the balance on 4/08.

    $$
    \text{B} = \text{R}3\,839,00 + \text{R}765,56
    $$
    $$
    \text{B} = \boxed{\text{R}4\,604,56}
    $$
    

    8. Pule is having a current account (or cheque account).

    1. ATM stands for Automated Teller Machine.
