During the year, $1,500 of receivables were written off. The
balance of Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts is a credit of $500
on December 31, 2021 prior to adjustments.
A.) Please calculate the bad debt expense for 2021.
B.) What is the amount of accounts receivable reported on Smith Industries' December 31, 2021 balance sheet?
Bad Debt expense = 70000 * 0.5% + 45000 * 2.5% + 30000 * 10% + 5000 * 95%
= 9225
Ending balance of allowance for doubtful accounts
= Balance before adjustments + Bad debt expense - Written off receivables
= 500 + 9225 - 1500
= 8225
Net account receivable shown in balance sheet = Gross receivables - Ending balance of allowance for doubtful account
= 150000 - 8225
= 141775
