    The ledger of a Company at the end of the current year shows Accounts Receivable
    $110,000, Sales $840,000, and Sales Returns and Allowances $28,000.
    Instructions
    (a) If the company uses the direct write-off method to account for uncollectible accounts, journalize
    The adjusting entry at December 31, assuming The Company determines that Rud"s $1,400 balance
    Is uncollectible.
    (b) If Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $2,100 in the trial balance, journalize
    The adjusting entry at December 31, assuming bad debts are expected to be (1) 1%
    Of net sales, and (2) 10% of accounts receivable.
    (c) If Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a debit balance of $200 in the trial balance, journalize
    The adjusting entry at December 31, assuming bad debts are expected to be (1) 0.75%
    Of net sales and (2) 6% of accounts receivable
