Net credit sales for the month are $670000. The accounts receivable balance is $170000. The allowance is calculated as 10% of the receivables balance using the percentage-of-receivables basis. If the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts has a credit balance of $9800 before adjustment, what is the balance after adjustment

$177,200

Explanation:

Net realizable value of the accounts receivable can be found by the following formula, which is:

Net Accounts receivables (Step3) = Closing Accounts receivables before adjustment (Step1) -/+ Increase or decrease in Allowance for doubtful debts (Step2)

Step 1: Closing Accounts receivables before adjustment

Closing Accounts receivables before adjustment is $170,000.

Step 2: Increase or decrease in Allowance for doubtful debts

Opening Allowance for Accounts receivables is $9800

Change in Allowance for doubtful debts is the difference of the Closing Allowance calculated and Opening Allowance Value in the account.

Which means:

Allowance for the Year = Closing Allowance calculated - Opening Allowance Value

Allowance for the Year = 10% of $170,000  - $9,800

Allowance for the Year = $17,000 - $9,800 = $7,200

Step 3: Net Accounts receivables

By putting the values we have:

Net Accounts Receivables = $170,000 + $7,200 = $177,200
