Explanation:
Given that,
Accounts Receivable = $900,000
Credit balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts per books before adjustment = $50,000
Expected amount of uncollectible = $56,000
Bad debt expense at the end of the period is determined by subtracting the credit balance of allowance for doubtful accounts from the expected amount of uncollectible.
Bad debt expense:
= Expected amount of uncollectible - Credit balance
= $56,000 - $50,000
= $6,000
At the end of the period, the allowance for doubtful accounts has a balance of $56,000 that are to be uncollectible.
The cash realizable value of the accounts receivable at December 31, after adjustment, is determined by simply subtracting the Allowance for doubtful accounts from the accounts receivable. It is calculated as follows:
= Accounts Receivable - Allowance for doubtful accounts
= $900,000 - $56,000
= $844,000
