Eye Inc. See note c.2 (24,500)

Total P2,198,800

c. The audit staff's examination revealed the following:

1. The negative balance in Eye Inc. subsidiary account resulted from an advance collection

from Eye Inc. for which goods shall be delivered in January of the following year.

2. The amount receivable from Eych Co. is definitely uncollectible thus has to be written off.

3. According to Aye Corp., in response to a confirmation request sent to the company, the

invoice dated August 15, 2020 has already been settled by the company. Further

investigation revealed that Aye Corp.'s payment was erroneously posted against Syi Co.

subsidiary ledger in payment of an invoice dated December 16, 2020 for the same

amount.

4. The December 1 invoice to Bee Inc. was for goods sold on the same date with an

accompanying two-months maintenance service contract (starting from the date of sale).

The service contract is considered a separate performance obligation from which a

separate service income should be recognized over the period covered. The stand-alone

selling price of the goods sold was at P90,000 while the maintenance service could be sold

separately at P30,000.

5. The February 14, 2020 invoice to Eff Company is offset by a credit memo for a sales

return issued to the said company. The credit memo was appropriately recorded in the

general books but were apparently overlooked in the posting to the subsidiary ledger.

6. The Sales Invoice to Gee Inc. dated September 18, 2020 was erroneously posted to the

subsidiary ledger at P50,400. Further investigation revealed that the correct amount

recorded in the sales journal was at P40,500.

d. The company has the following policy in providing for the allowance for bad debts.

Age Category % of Collectibility

1-60 days 98%

61-120 days 90%

121-180 days 80%

3. What is the correct of allowance for bad debts?

4. What is the correct bad debt expense for the period?
