Explanation:

Solution

(1) The first step is to prepare a Journal entries relative to uncollectable accounts and bad debts expense which is stated as follows:

Bad debt                                           Credit sales * percentage

The bad debt amount                      $156,000  1.0%

Total                                                                 $1560

The estimated bad deb loss becomes:

                                                                          Debit          Credit

The debt expense account (dr)                        $1560

Allowance for uncollectable of accounts                        $1560

For writing off a 380 to a particular uncollectible accounts :

                                                                              Debit        Credit

Allowance for uncollectable of accounts           $380

To the account receivable                                                     $380

(2) The year end - balance  accounts receivable is shown below:

The year end balance sheet presentation:

The account receivable= $156,000 - $113,000 = $43,000

The account receivable for the uncollactable  amount = $43,000 - $380 = $42,620

The less amount for uncollactable sum or amount = $1560 - $380 = $1,180

The net account receivable = $42,620 -$1180 = $41,440

don't use it that much

answer: qué lástima, pero no podré ir.
