Meaning
A dishonoured cheque is a cheque received and banked by the business but rejected by the bank because there are insufficient funds in the payer's account or because of a fault in the cheque. The bank reverses the amount out of the business's account.
Example
Cahaya Enterprise banks a RM250 cheque from a customer, but the cheque is dishonoured; the bank reverses the RM250, so the cash book must be credited with RM250.
