Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The amount of Bad Debt Expense reported in 2019 was $16,100.

Explanation:

Our concern is mainly on the allowance for doubtful accounts. Based on the facts given in the question, the opening balance of the allowance account was $79,900 credit balance, while the closing balance was $96,000 credit. Since there were no write-offs or recoveries during 2019, the bad debt expense is simply the difference between the closing balance and the opening balance i.e, $96,000 - $79,900 = $16,100.

The journal entries will be:

Debit Bad debt expense                                           $16,100

Credit Allowance for doubtful account                    $16,100
