To account for cash, there are a number of legally approved documents. One of these documents is a cash receipt.

An incoming cash order (PKO) is a unified cash document that reflects the receipt of cash from various sources. The form of the incoming cash order KO-1 was approved by Decree No. 88 of 08/18/1998, it cannot be modified, added or deleted any sections and indicators.

Cash receipts at the cash desk can have the following purposes:

  • cash receipts from settlement accounts;
  • revenue from customers;
  • return unused ;
  • return of loans, compensation for damage;
  • contributions from the founders to the authorized capital.

Registration of PKO is mandatory for any receipt of funds at the cash desk of an organization or entrepreneur. Acceptance of funds without registration of PKO is a violation of cash discipline and is punishable by fines that are imposed on an official in the amount of 4 to 5 thousand rubles and on an organization in the amount of 40 to 50 thousand rubles.
