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.

What is a target audience and why is it important to consider when creating a multimedia presentation?
ss7ja [257]

A target audience is the group that you are trying to attract. It is important to have one for your multimedia presentation because it is impossible to appeal to all groups, so you must narrow down who you are trying to reach.

A target audience is the group or demographic that you are aiming the multimedia presentation at. A target audience may include things like a specific gender, age group, marital status or income level.

A target audience is important when creating a multimedia presentation because you want to attract attention, but it is impossible to attract everyone’s attention. You need to include features that will appeal to your target audience. These features may include photos, music or topics that will appeal to a particular group.
