<em>Incomplete question is "2. What journal entry should Johnson record to recognize bad debt expense for 2021? 3. Assume Johnson made no other adjustment of the allowance for uncollectible accounts during 2021. Determine the amount of accounts receivable written off during 2021 4. If Johnson instead used the direct write-off method, what would bad debt expense be for 2021?"</em>
1. Gross accounts Receivable = Allowance Account balance at beginning / 10%
= $30,000 / 10%
= $300,000
2. Year Account Title Debit Credit
2021 Bad debt expense $105,000
($500,000*10% + $55,000)
To Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $105,000
3. Accounts receivable written off = Beginning balance of Allowance Account - Ending Balance of Allowance account
= $30,000 - (- $50,000)
= $30,000 + $50,000
= $80,000
4. Bad debt expense for 2021 (direct write off method) = Amount written off = $80,000
Answer:
$16,700
Explanation:
The computation of the ending balance in the allowance for doubtful account is shown below:
= Unadjusted credit balance + Net credit sales × estimated bad debt percentage
= $4,100 + $210,000 × 6%
= $4,100 + $12,600
= $16,700
We simply added the unadjsuted credit balance and estimated amount after considered the estimated bad debt percentage
