We need to find the net present value. The maximum initial investment will be the amount that makes the NPV cero.
NPV=∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
Cf= cash flow
<u>For example:</u>
Year 1= 500/1.05= 476.19
Year 3= 500/1.05^3= 431.92
Year 5= 1,000/1.05^5= 783.53
NPV= 6,360.111
The maximum investment is $6,360.111

Explanation:
When using the percent of sales method to determine bad debts, the company estimates a percentage that it believes will results in uncollectible debt and then applies it to the sales/revenue figure. The figure that is calculated is then debited along with the debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful accounts to the Bad debts account for the year and credited to the Allowance for doubtful accounts.
This company estimates that they will have 0.6% of credit sales uncollectible.
There are also $790,000 in sales of which all are on credit.
The Uncollectible estimate is therefore,
= 790,000 * 0.6%
= $4,740
This figure is then added to the debit amount on the Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts.
= 4,470 + 700
= $5,440
Note; A debit balance on the Allowance for doubtful debt account signifies that the bad debts were higher than anticipated the last time. This is why the figure is added to the current bad debts expense.
