Willis had never used the allowance method to account for its receivables until Year 1. The net realizable value of its accounts receivable at the end of the year was $34,000. True or false?

Respuesta :

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Given:

Total credit sales = $200,000

Estimated bad debts = 2%

Ending balance of account Receivables = $38,000

Note: it is given that Willis Company had never use allowance method for Account Receivables.

So, Willis Company uses "Write off" method .

Computation of write off amount from account receivable:

Bed debts = Total credit sales × Estimated bad debts

Bed debts = $200,000  × 2%

Bed debts = $4,000

Net realizable value of Accounts receivable = $38,000 - Bed debts

Net realizable value of Accounts receivable = $38,000 - $4,000

Net realizable value of Accounts receivable = $34,000

Therefore, net realizable value of Accounts receivable is '$34,000' is True.
