Expense to be recorded in 2014, the balance in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts after adjustment at December
31, 2014, and the net realizable value of Accounts Receivable at December 31, 2014:

2014, is was estimated that $15,500 will be uncollectible. There is a credit balance of $1,200 in Allowance for
Doubtful Accounts before adjustment.

$425,000 at December 31, 2014, and an Allowance for Doubtful Accounts credit balance of $11,000 before
adjustment. Blake estimates Bad Debt Expense as 3/4 of 1% of net credit sales.
c) Hidgon Inc. has a balance of $812,000 in Accounts Receivable at December 31, 2014. An analysis of those
receivables shows $24,000 will probably not be collected. Before adjusting entries are prepared, the Allowance
