The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of $17,330 at the beginning of 2016 and a $22,510 credit balance at the end of 2016 (after adjusting entries). If the direct write-off method had been used to account for uncollectible accounts (bad debt expense equals actual write-offs), the income statement for 2016 would have included bad debt expense of $17,200 and revenue of $2,300 from the collection of previously written off bad debts.
