If ohio company received $2,250 as partial payment on the $5,500 account of carson mueller co. and wrote off the remaining balance as uncollectible, the only difference between recording the entry under the direct write-off method and the allowance method (assuming that an adequate allowance account had been set up) would be
a. a debit to bad debt expense for $3,250 under the direct method rather than a debit to accounts receivable for $3,250 under the allowance method.
b. a debit to bad debt expense for $3,250 under the direct method rather than a debit to allowance for doubtful accounts for $3,250 under the allowance method.
c. a credit to accounts receivable for $3,250 under the direct method rather than a credit to allowance for doubtful accounts for $3,250 under the allowance method.
d. a debit to cash for $2,250 under the direct method rather than a credit to cash for $2,250 under the allowance method.
