    Accounting homework answers/help
    Here is the problem I have in an accounting class:

    At September 30, 2012, the accounts of Moutain Terrace Medical Center (MTMC) include the following:

    Accounts Receivable $145,000
    Allowance for uncollectible accounts (credit balance) $3,500

    During the last qtr of 2012, MTMC completed the following selected transactions:
    Dec. 28: Wrote off accounts receivable as uncollectible: $1,300, $900, and $700
    Dec. 31: Recorded uncollectible account expense based on the aging of accounts receivable, as follows:

    Age of Accounts

    Accounts Receivable 1-30 Days 31-60 Days 61-90 Days Over 90 Days
    $165,000 $97,000 $37,000 $14,000 $17,000

    Estimated %
    Uncollectible 0.3% 3% 30% 35%

    Part 1: Journalize the transactions using the allowance method

    Part 2: Open the allowance for uncollectible accounts T-accounts, and post entires affecting that account. Keep a running balance

    Part 3: Show how MTMC should report net accounts receivable on its Dec, 31 2012 balance sheet. Use the three line reporting format

    Somebody please help!

    Thank you,
