Wecker Company’s year-end unadjusted trial balance shows accounts receivable of $89,000, allowance for doubtful accounts of $500 (credit), and sales of $270,000. Uncollectibles are estimated to be 1.5%

of accounts receivable.

1. Prepare the December 31 year-end adjusting entry for uncollectibles.

2. What amount would have been used in the year-end adjusting entry if the allowance account had a year-end unadjusted debit balance of $200?

3. Assume the same facts as in part 1, except that Wecker estimates uncollectibles as 1.0% of sales.

Prepare the December 31 year-end adjusting entry for uncollectibles. lop5
