Answer:

(C) $745

Explanation:

The computation is given below:

For computing the bad debt  expense, first we have to determine the ending account receivable balance which is shown below:

Ending account receivable balance = Beginning account receivable + credit sales - collections - written off amount

= $20,000 + $70,000 - $74,700 - $400

= $15,300

So, the bad debt expense is

= Ending account receivable × given percentage

= $15,300 × 5%

= $745
