Your accounts receivable clerk, Mitra Adams, to whom you pay a salary of \(1,500 per month, has just purchased a new Acura. You decide to test the accuracy of the accounts receivable balance of \)82,000 as shown in the ledger.

The following information is available for your first year in business.

(1) Collection from customer $198,000.

(2) Merchandise purchased 320,000.

(3) Ending merchandise inventory by 90,000.

(4) Goods are marked to sell at 40% above cost.

On June 12, the company received a check for the balance due from Chester Company

(b) Instead of estimating uncollectible based on a percentage of receivables, assume Wilton prepares an aging schedule that estimates total uncollectible accounts at \(24,600. (Assume an allowance of \)2,400 credit.) Prepare the entry to record bad debt expenses.

BE7-5 (L03) Wilton, Inc. had net sales in 2017 of \(1,400,000.
