Answer:

$8,020

Explanation:

estimated uncollectible receivables = $7,100

accounts receivables = $121,000

unadjusted debit balance of allowance for uncollectible accounts = $920

credit sales during the year = $192,000

bad debt expense = unadjusted debit balance + estimated uncollectible receivables = $7,100 + $920 = $8,020

the adjusting journal entry:

Dr Bad debt expense 8,020

    Cr Allowance for uncollectible accounts 8,020
