Answer:

Option (A) is correct.

Explanation:

Given that,

Accounts Receivable = $300,000

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts = $4,200 (debit balance)

Net sales = $3,600,000

The Adjusting journal entry is as follows:

Bad Debts Expense A/c Dr. $36,000

           To Allowance for Doubtful Accounts   $36,000

(To record the estimate doubtful accounts)

Working notes:

Bad Debts Expense = 1 percent of net sales

                                 = 0.01 × $3,600,000

                                 = $36,000
