Answer:

See explanation section

Explanation:

The adjustment Mayberry Advertising would record to establish Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is as follows:

Debit     Bad Debt Expense                  $1,768

Credit    Allowance for doubtful accounts       $1,768

Calculation: $22,100 × 8% = $1,768

As there was no beginning debit or credit balance of allowance for doubtful accounts, we did not need to adjust the expense. Mayberry Advertising just added the amount in the expense section.
