Dr Bad debt expense 10,250

    Cr Allowance for doubtful accounts 10,250

Allowance for doubtful accounts is a contra asset account that reduces the amount of accounts receivable and has a credit balance.

2. Calculate the net realizable value of accounts receivable.

net realizable value of accounts receivable  = total accounts receivable - allowance for doubtful accounts = $41,000 - $10,250 = $30,750

Explanation:

total services on account $142,000

cash collected $101,000, remaining accounts receivable $41,000

25% of remaining accounts receivable will be uncollectible = $41,000 x 25% = $10,250 in bad debts
