Answer:

Explanation:

provision For Doubtfull Accounts Yr.3

Opening Bal. = 3,750

For the Year (215000*2%) = 4300

Write-off = -2100

Closing Balance (3750+4300-2100) = 5950

Account Recievable For Yr.3

Opening Bal. = 61000

Sales For the Year (215000*2%) = 215000

Provision For the Year = -4300

Cash Recived from Debtors = 218000

Closing Balance = 53700

Net Realizable Value of Recievables

Closing Debtors = 53700

Closing Provision = -5650

Net Realizable Value = 47750

C) Collectible Amount

Provision For the Year = 4300

Previously writte of recoverred = -500
