Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Accounts Receivable balance on January 1, Year 2 = $16,000

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance on January 1, Year 2 = $0

Service Revenue on credit during Year 2 = $104,000

Cash collected from Accounts Receivable = $97,000

Accounts Receivable balance on December 31, Year 2 = $23,000

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance on December 31, Year 2 = $2,080 ($104,000 * 2%)
