The solution shall be derived by adding all deposits and subtracting all checks issued. Therefore we would have;


\begin{gathered} \text{Opening balance+deposits-checks issued=Closing balance} \\ 3289.76+(1345.10+1321.03+300+818.98+987.33)-(223.45+52.78+2300+1423+179.05)=\text{Closing balance} \\ 3289.76+(4772.44)-(4178.28)=\text{Closing balance} \\ 8062.20-4178.28=\text{Closing balance} \\ 3883.92=\text{Closing balance} \end{gathered}

Your balance therefore is $3,883.92
