My Monthly Cash Flow Statements do not roll properly from month to month (beginning does not equal ending).

Hello.  I am having the following very confusing issue hoping for some guidance.

 

I am using fake numbers for simplicity:

 

  • If I print a cash flow statement for the month of September it gives me a an ENDING cash balance of $1,650,000.
  • If I print a Cash flow statement for the month of October it gives me a BEGINNING cash balance of $1,000,000.
  • I would expect these two numbers to be the same.  Note: While these are fake numbers, the real numbers do indeed reflect an EVEN $650,000 difference. 
  • I perform this same exercise for August rolling into September and October Rolling into November.  The differences are an even $200,000 and $300,000 respectively. 
  • In my example above.  The $1,000,000 Beginning represents the TRUE AMOUNT of cash we had sitting in all our bank accounts at the end of the period prior.  This is true for my subsequent examples.  It is the ENDING amounts in each SOCF that are off by this very even amount. 

 

There is something being incorrectly included in Ending Cash each time I print a SOCF that is correctly being excluded in Beginning Cash on the following period's SOCF.   

 

Does anyone have any idea how I might be able to track down what is causing this?  I have tried digging into each item on my SOCF that changes cash month to month and I can't find it.   Does anyone know what kind of item can cause this. 

 

Thanks so much in advance.
