Note receivable       $600,000
Interest receivable       32,000
Accounts receivable   1,395,000    
Less: Allowance for doubtful accounts receivable   87,000   1,308,000
        $1,940,000


The following occurred in 2017.

1.   Bramble made sales of $10,680,000. All sales were credit sales. Bramble allows some discounts for early payment of receivables and uses the gross method to record sales.

3.   Accounts receivable of $10,780,000 were collected. Collections for the year included $300,000 of accounts on which 2% sales discounts were allowed.  
4.   $13,500 was received in payment of an account which was written off the books as worthless in 2016.  
5.   At year-end (December 31, 2017), Bramble estimated that its Allowance for Doubtful Accounts needed a balance of $75,000. This estimate is based on an analysis of aged accounts receivable.
