Answer:
Dr Bad debt expense 3,070
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 3,070
Explanation:
$99,000 in accounts receivables
4% is considered bad debt
$99,000 x 4% = $3,960
the current balance for allowance for doubtful accounts = $890 (credit)
the adjusting entry for allowance for doubtful accounts = $3,960 - $890 = $3,070
the journal entry should be:
Dr Bad debt expense 3,070
Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 3,070
the final balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts = $3,070 + $890 = $3,960
