The amount recorded in Bad Debt Expense under the heading Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses for 2020 was $62,370 and for 2019 it was $73,000.

On January 1, 2018, the company acquired machinery at a cost of $470,000. The company adopted the declining- balance method of depreciation at a rate of 30% for this machinery, and had been recording depreciation over an estimated life of 10 years, with no residual value. At the beginning of 2020, a decision was made to adopt the straight-line method of depreciation for this machinery to better match expenses to their related revenues. Depreciation for 2020, based on the straight-line method, was included in selling, general, and administrative expenses. (Hint: a change in depreciation method is considered a change in estimate, not a change in accounting policy.) (Round answers to decimal places, e.g. 5,275.) Sarasota Ltd.
