b. Assuming the use of an allowance system to account for uncollectible accounts, what amount should McGinnis record as uncollectible accounts expense in Year 1?
c. What is the net realizable value of receivables at the end of Year 1?
d. Show the effect of these transactions on the financial statements by recording the appropriate amounts in a horizontal statements model like the one shown here.
