$29,950

Explanation:

For computing the balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, first we have to determine the total estimated uncollectible accounts which is shown below:

= Dollar value × uncollectible percentage + Dollar value × uncollectible percentage + Dollar value × uncollectible percentage  + Dollar value × uncollectible percentage

= $230,000 × 1% + $75,000 × 6% + $30,000 × 29%   + $15,000 × 83%

= $2,300 + $4,500 + $8,700 + $12,450

= $27,950

And, the debit balance of uncollectible account is $2,000

So, the balance in allowance for doubtful accounts would be

= $27,950 + $2,000

= $29,950

Since the collectible percentage is given so we simply deduct it by 100%

is this a

d. all of the above are true.
