The journal entry to establish an allowance for uncollectible accounts is as follows

Bad debt expense A/c Dr  $15,060

 To Allowance for doubtful debts  $15,060

(Being bad debt allowance recorded)

The bad debt expense is calculated as shown below, as 6% of the accounts are proven uncollectible.

$251,000x 6/100

$2510x 6

=$15,060

In order to make the proper posting, we debited the bad debt expense and credited the allowance for doubtful debts account.

A bad debt expense is recognized when a receivable is no longer collectable as a result of a customer's inability to pay an outstanding debt due to bankruptcy or other financial troubles.

Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

The correct option is b. de jure corporation.

Explanation:

A de jure corporation is a business that has fulfilled all the requirements mandated under the law of its state incorporation statute and has had limited liability protection granted to the corporation. De jure means "a matter of law," which validates the corporation as a legal entity.

It is created when steps are taken to incorporate, but not all of the statutes are in compliance. With a de facto corporation, it is not protected if the state challenges it in a "quo warranto" proceeding. It is protected against third parties.  

Courts can decide on a finding of de facto if three requirements are met by the corporation:

• A statute must be in existence that allows legal incorporation.

• The corporation has attempted to comply with the statute, which is considered a good faith effort.

• There has been actual use or the exercise of the corporate franchise.
