Check printing charges definition
/What are Check Printing Charges?
Check printing charges are the fee imposed by a bank when an account holder orders additional check stock. The fee is typically run through the account holder's bank account, and appears on the monthly bank statement as a deduction.
Accounting for Check Printing Charges
The account holder charges this amount to expense as incurred. The expense is classified as an administrative expense, since it is not related to the cost of goods sold. Check printing charges are not capitalized, even though the related check stock may not be completely used for an extended period of time; the reason is that this expenditure is too minor to be classified as an asset.
