Read the result

Adjusted bank = statement balance + deposits in transit − outstanding payments. Adjusted ledger = ledger balance + unrecorded receipts − unrecorded bank fees. Difference = adjusted bank − adjusted ledger.

For the example, both sides equal 10,400 and the difference is zero. A zero difference means these inputs agree; it does not prove every transaction is valid or correctly classified.
