In 20x7 the Golic Co. had net credit sales of $900,000. On January 1, 20x7, the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts had a credit balance of $22,500. During 20x7, $36,000 of uncollectible accounts receivable were written off. Past experience indicates that the allowance should be 10% of the balance in receivables (percentage-of-receivables basis). If the accounts receivable balance at December 31 was $240,000, what is the required adjustment to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts at December 31, 20x7?
