Answer:

a. Journalize the adjusting entry for the estimated customer allowances.

  • Dr Sales returns and allowances 10,500

The adjusting entry should = total sales x estimated percent of returns = $1,750,000 x 0.6% = $10,500

b. Journalize the adjusting entry for the estimated customer returns.

  • Dr Estimated returns inventory 8,000
