(Paul Paladin/) Chapter Outline “Money is just what we use to keep tally.” —Henry Ford, 1863–1947 (American automobile manufacturer) C 494 hecks are the most common type of negotiable instruments regulated by the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC). Checks are convenient to use because they serve as a substitute for cash. Thus, as Henry Ford said in the chapter-opening quotation, checks help us to “keep tally.” To be sure, most students today tend to use debit cards rather than checks for many retail transactions. Not only do debit cards now account for more retail payments than checks, but payments are increasingly being made via smartphones, iPads, and other mobile devices, as we discuss later in this chapter. Nonetheless, commercial checks remain an integral part of the . economic system. Articles 3 and 4 of the UCC govern issues relating to checks. Article 4 of the UCC governs bank deposits and collections as well as bank-customer relationships. Article 4
