Answer:

a. Bad Debt Expense 5100 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 5100

Explanation:

The adjusting entry is shown below:

Bad debt expense $5,100

       To Allowance for doubtful debts $5,100

(Being the bad debt expense is recorded)

The computation is shown below:

= Account receivable × estimated percentage - credit balance of allowance for doubtful debts

= $170,000 × 5% - $3,400

= $8,500 - $3,400

= $5,100

In order to recording this transaction, we debited the bad debt expense as it increases the expenses account whereas at the same time it reduces the account receivable therefore the allowance for doubtful debts is credited
