At the beginning of 2009, Pental Company had the following balances:
A/R = $122,000
Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts = $7,900
During 2009, their credit sales were $1,173,000 and collections on A/R were $1,150,000.
The following additional transactions occurred during the year:
Feb 17, wrote off XXX Account, $3.600
May 28, wrote off YYY Account, $2,400
Dec 15, wrote off ZZZ Account, $900
Dec 31, recorded bad debts expense assuming that Penman's policy is to record bad debts expense at 0.8% of credit sales (Hint: The allowance account is increased by 0.8% of credit sales regardless of write-offs.)
Compute the ending balance in A/R and the allowance for uncollectible accounts. Show how Pental's Dec 31, 2009 balance sheet reports the two accounts.
