December 31, 2021

Dr Uncollectible amounts $12,500

Cr Allowance uncollectible amounts $12,500

(To record allowance)

2a. Preparation of the journal entry to Record the write-off of accounts receivable in 2022

Dr Allowance uncollectible amounts $10,000

Cr Accoutns receivables $10,000

(To Record the write-off of accounts receivable in 2022)

2b. Calculation to determine the balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts at the end of 2022

Balance of the allowance accounts=[ 60,000-110,000)*25%] -$10,000

12,500 - 10,000 = 2,500

allowance uncollectible amounts 15,000 debit

accoutns receivables 15,000 credit
