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.

Andrews [41]

Answer:

The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2023 = $88,800.

Explanation:

<u>Determining the actual acquisition cost.</u>

The actual acquisition cost = Purchase value + freight charges + Installation costs.

The actual acquisition cost = 460,000 + 15,000 + 34,000.

The actual acquisition cost = $509,000.

<u>Determining the depreciable cost.</u>

The depreciable cost = acquisition cost - Salvage value.

The depreciable cost = 509,000 - 65000.

The depreciable cost = $444,000.

<u>Determining annual depreciation expense.</u>

Annual depreciation expense = depreciable cost / number of years.

Annual depreciation expense = 444,000 / 10.

Annual depreciation expense = 44,400.

<u>Determining the accumulated depreciation .</u>

The accumulated depreciation = annual depreciation expense × number of years.

The accumulated depreciation = 44,400 × 2.

The amount of accumulated depreciation at December 31, 2023 = $88,800.
