what is ending balance?

Question

My father recently withdrew $30 from his bank account, but I noticed that his available balance did not change, even though his ending balance decreased by $30. I am confused about what "ending balance" means and why his available balance remained the same while his ending balance changed. Can someone help clarify this for me?

his available balance HAD to change by $30.00, as did his ending balance. Ending balance is what is left after he made any transaction. If he has $100.00 and takes out $30.00, his ending balance is $70.00. (100-30=70).
His available balance is any money his has in the bank that have already “cleared.” In other words, he may make a deposit but it is with a check from out of town. The bank will tell him that money is “not available” until a certain date. 
So he has that original $100.00 and all is available. Now he makes a deposit of $200.00 with an out of town check. The bank may tell him none of that is available until the next day. So his ending balance is 100+200+300, but his available balance is still only $100.00

maybe by now you have guessed &ldquo;ending balance&rdquo; = current balance = what you have charged since the last billing cycle { which you paid off in full &ndash; good for you.} Yes, you get a bill every month, about the same time {Sundays and holidays may affect it, as might 28 days in Feb.} Don&rsquo;t overthink it (lol).
