Answer: $15,500

Explanation:

First we calculate the estimated Uncollecteble debt,

= 6% of 310,000

= 0.06 (310,000)

= $18,600

We will then subtract the existing $3,100 to find out how much we will send to the Bad Debt Expense account because the amount already in the account needs to be included in the $18,600.

= 18,600 - 3,100

= $15,500

We will therefore Debit the Bad Debt Expense account with $15,500 and Credit the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts with the same amount.

If you need any clarification do react or comment.

Hatshy [7]

In this report, there are three variables being mentioned. These are:

1st variable = 19 minutes

2nd variable = 7 jumps

3rd variable = 79%

 

In this problem, I believe what we are asked to do is to identify the type of variable the 2nd variable is. We are given that the 2nd variable is “7 jumps”.  This means that the 2nd variable is quantitative because it refers to or relating to a measurement of something rather than the quality. We also know that jumps can only take whole numbers, not decimal. Therefore it is also discrete. Hence, the 2nd variable is:

quantitative and discrete
