       9 Entry to record estimates of un-collectible)

Explanation:

a). Opening allowance for doubtful debts = 1700

Kincaid estimates 1% credit sales is collectibles = 162000 * 1% = 1620.

Total Allowance for doubtful debts =  1700+ 1620 = 3320

less: write off in 2016                                                   (1350)

         Allowance for doubtful debts at end                1970

Net realizable value:

Account receivable (end)=Account receivable (open)+ Sales during year -cash received against sales.

                      =65400+162000-178900

                     = 48500

Net realizable value = Account receivable (end)- Allowance for doubtful debt (end)

                         =  48500-1970

                       =  46530
