Answer:

D. $12,400

Explanation:

Use the following formula to calculate the Bad debt expense for the period

Bad debt expesne = Debit balance of Allowance account + Allowance for the period

Where

Debit balance of Allowance account = $400

Allowance for the period = Account receivables x percentage of allowance = $1,200,000 x 1% = $12,000

Placing values in the formula

Bad debt expesne = $400 + $12,000

Bad debt expesne = $12,400
