Simpson Enterprises reported the following unadjusted balances at December 31, 2019: Accounts Receivable $860,500 dr.

Allowance for Sales Discounts $ 3,300 cr.

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts $ 68,500 cr.

At year end, it was determined that $75,600 of accounts receivable were uncollectable. Of the remaining receivables, it was determined that 65% were current (that is less than 30 days old), 25% were between 30 and 90 days old, and 10% were over 90 days old. Simpson estimates that 4% of current A/R will be uncollectible, 12% of 30-90 days A/R will be uncollectible, and 60% of over 90 days A/R will be uncollectible. Upon further analysis of the current receivables, it was determined that the allowance for sales discounts should be $2,760 in order to accommodate the accounts expected to be paid in the 2/10 discount period.
