Kingbird, inc. uses the percentage-of-receivables method for recording bad debt expense. the accounts receivable balance is $39 and credit sales are $156. management estimates that 5% of accounts receivable will be uncollectible. what adjusting entry will kingbird, inc. make if the allowance for doubtful accounts has a credit balance of $3900 before adjustment?

Explanation:

Before passing the adjusting entry, first we have to compute the allowance for doubtful debts balance which is shown below:

= Accounts receivable × estimated percentage - credit balance

= $390,000 × 5% - $3,900

= $19,500 - $3,900

= $15,600

Now the adjusting entry would be shown below:

Bad debt A/c Dr $15,600

    To Allowance for Doubtful Accounts A/c $15,600

(Being adjusting entry is recorded)

answer; limited pay life;

the answer is true.  i do believe this is the answer because of the amount of wrecks people get into each year.  if you double this with avoiding those so said wrecks, that would make you a "skilled" driver.
