    Adjustments IN Accounts Receivable
    The company estimates that 3% of Accounts Receivable will not be collected. The year end adjusting entry has not been made.


    Accounts Receivable $700,000

    Now I have calculated $700,000 x 0.03% = $21,000
    So How do I write my adjustments?? Do I write this off as a bad debt?

    I don't quite understand how it should be written (i.e Accounts receivable expense?? )
