Example packet
Friday concession closeout example
Two concession tills close after a home game. The main window has one cash drop, the ticket table keeps its starting bank, and the chair enters card/POS totals from the report.
- $967.00 actual cash sales.
- Expected and counted cash match across both tills.
- $1,087.00 cash-plus-check deposit total.
Assumptions
What the numbers assume
- Count all bills, loose coin, rolled coin, and partial rolls before separating the retained bank.
- Use expected cash from tickets, item counts, or a POS/report only when your group has a source you trust.
- Checks and card/online payments are tracked beside cash, but they are not counted as cash over/short.
- Use initials or role labels for counters if your group does not need full names on a shared packet.
- Follow your school, PTO/PTA, booster, district, bank, and local procedures for deposits and records.
Formula notes
How the totals are calculated
- Ending cash count totals bills, loose coins, rolled coins, and any partial-roll amount entered for each till.
- Actual cash sales add back cash drops and cash payouts, then subtract the starting bank and added change.
- Cash to deposit adds ending cash and cash drops, then subtracts the retained bank kept for the next event.
- Cash over/short compares actual cash sales with expected cash sales when an expected cash total is entered.
- Card/POS and online fields stay separate from cash over/short so you can compare them with local systems.
