STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL POSITION
PRESENTATION
TechCom had credit sales of $300,000 during its first year of
operations. At the end of the first year, $20,000 of credit
sales remained uncollected. Based on the experience of
similar businesses, TechCom estimated that $1,500 of its
accounts receivable would be uncollectible.

INDIVIDUAL AND GROUP ESTIMATION OF
BAD DEBTS
At the beginning of the period, GlobeCom has a credit balance of $1,700
in its allowance for doubtful accounts. At the end of the period, GlobeCom
has gross accounts receivable of $71,200. There was objective evidence
that 10% of a $6,000 debt owed by a debtor, IslandCom, would most
probably be uncollectible. The rest of the accounts receivables were
reviewed collectively and the results indicated that an estimated 2% of
these accounts would not
be collectible.
The required ending balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts is
calculated as 10% X $6,000 + 2% X ($71,200 - $6,000) = $1,904. Since
we already have a beginning balance of $1,700, we need to credit another
$204.
