Businesses often need small amounts of cash known as petty cash for expenditures where it is not practical to make the disbursement by check.\n\nThe most common way of accounting for these expenditures is to use the imprest system. The initial fund would be created by issuing a check for the desired amount. Usually $100 would be sufficient for most small business needs. The entry for this initial fund would be to debit Petty Cash and credit cash.\n\nAs expenditures are made the custodian of the fund will reimburse employees and secure a petty cash voucher in return. At any given time the total of cash on hand plus reimbursed vouchers must equal the original fund.\n\nWhen the fund gets low the custodian submits the vouchers for reimbursement. Assuming the vouchers add up to $80 and that the majority of expenditures were for office supplies, an $80 check is issued and an $80 debit towards office expenses is marked. Once the check is cashed, the custodian has cash at the original amount.\n\nOversight of petty cash is important because of the potential for abuse. Examples of petty cash controls include a limit (such as 10% of the total fund) on disbursements and monthly audits by someone other than the custodian. Use of petty cash is sufficiently widespread that vouchers for use in reimbursement are available at any office supply store.\n\nRetrieved from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petty_cash"

It usually means that the person is weak and/or foolish enough for other people to take advantage of.\nIt can also just be used as a generic insult, I suppose.

The expression is a metaphor for a dairy cow, which after being acquired can be milked on an ongoing basis with little expense.\n\n\nIn business, a cash cow is a product or a business unit that generates unusually high profit margins: so high that it is responsible for a large amount of a company's operating profit. This profit far exceeds the amount necessary to maintain the cash cow business, and the excess is used by the business for other purposes.

Say you do something nice for somebody, you will have potentially gained some 'brownie points', meaning that at some time in the future, near or far, that person will either repay the favour or look upon you more favourably or even perhaps forgive you for an indescretion. They arn't actual points that you write in a book or anything, they're hypothetical. Try earning some today, they are often worth much more than money!

Banks used to have a person called a Cashier who was responsible to uphold the bank's commitments. When we give a Cashier's Check today it is an instrument that assures the recipient of payment by the bank of a set amount. A form is usually used and the name of the "cashier" is printed on the form.\nIf given a personal check, the recipient is at risk as there may be insufficient funds to pay. A Cashier's Check is secure as the money from the origianl payer is taken by the bank in exchange for its check made out to the payee. Apparently banks still have a better reputation than a stranger.

Yes..  what goes around comes around.  It's a weird thing but you do the right thing and when you least expect it boom someone does the same to you..    Plus, the money will probably come out of the cashier's pocket.  And if you return the money it will make someone's day.   Peace.

Ok, this is complicated.  IF you have a policy that outlines what the petty cash CAN be used for and she used the cash for expenses OTHER than those things, then this is technically theft of company funds and, yes, you can terminate her.  The way it works is you place her on suspension first (do NOT "fire" her).  Then, get her final check cut and write a letter for her file that indicates why she is being terminated, on what date and time, and any other information you want to put in there.  On the letter/form, there should be a place for the employee to make somments and sign.  This is important.  Then, call her into the office (she is still on suspension, remember) and, after handing her the Final Paycheck, let her go.  You HAVE to pay her the full amount owed to her at the time of termination in California.\n\nNow, if there is NO policy in place for the use of Petty Cash, then you are out of luck.  Your best recorse is to create a new policy for petty cash, print it out and have ALL EMPLOYEES sign it.  Give a copy to all the employees and put one in each employee's file.  Then, talk to her and let her know that you expect these policies to be followed to the letter.  If she does it again, it is theft (see the above paragraph).  If she pulls herself together, then you have gained a good employee.  Either way, you are free of the problem and you win.\n\nI hope this helps.

Yeh, that term is most commonly used to mean 'get me what I want / need' e.g. "He's sorting me out with tickets for the concert next week" means he's going to get the tickets for me.\nIt's also used when someone is talking about going to beat someone up e.g "He shouldn't have said what he did about me. I'm going to see him tonight to 'sort him out'"

If you cash a check that bounces, you are responsible to the check cashing place for the funds. It is then your job to go after the person you received the check from. \n\nThis is a technique scam artists use. They give you a bad check for more than what they owe you, have you cash the check (not deposit it), then tell you to keep what they owe you, and you give them the difference. Then, when the check bounces, the check cashing place comes after you, and when you go after the scammer, they are long gone.

The correct term is 'cheese-paring', and it means to be reluctant to spend money, so the nearest one here is the first option, 'stinginess'.  It's also synonymous with 'penny-pinching'.
