The allowance for doubtful accounts credited, instead of accounts receivable when recording the adjusting entry for bad debts Because accounts receivable is made up of numerous client accounts, it cannot be credited unless it is known which particular customer will not pay.
The provision for questionable accounts is referred to as a "counter asset" since it reduces the value of an asset, in this example, the accounts receivable. The compensation, often known as a doubtful account, is management's projection of the amount of accounts receivable that customers will not pay. Let's assume, using the aforementioned example, that on June 30 a business reports an accounts receivable debit balance of $1,000,000. The business predicts that $50,000 will not be converted into cash and expects some consumers won't be able to pay the full amount.

Annual payment is:
= 68,000 / 4
= $17,000
