What is a check?
Not once we heard in our address: "Please take a check." And what is a check? For us, it's just a torn piece of paper that we'll throw into the nearest trash can or a valuable document that needs to be kept?
Document or piece of paper
A check is a monetary document that has a short period of validity. It contains information about the monetary transaction. The issue of checks depends on the requirements of commercial turnover.
In commercial structures there is such a thing as an average check. Not everyone of us knows what the average check is. Therefore, we will disclose it in more detail.
Every average citizen in one or anotherthe institution leaves a certain amount. This amount is the average check. If you analyze the activities of cafes, restaurants, shops, then here will primarily be the average check. This concept is convenient for both buyers and owners of trading institutions. Buyers on average check can expect their money and financial opportunities, and the owners on the basis of the average check plan to do business. The average check is calculated by several methods, if to say simply, then this is a simple arithmetic mean.
What should be in the check
The contents of the check should be as follows:
- name;
- date and place of the check;
- indication of the payer's account;
- currency of payment;
- the signature of the person who wrote the check.
We gave an example of a bank check. If you take a check of a shop or restaurant, then there will be a difference in them.
Checks are used:
- when you receive cash in the bank;
- when calculating for services and goods;
- at non-cash payment.
No matter how you treat the checks, it is recommended that they not be discarded, but kept for some time. There are situations in which they play an important role.
