At the end of the year, a company has a balance in Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts of $2,200 (credit) before any year-end adjustment. The balance of Accounts Receivable is $190,000. The company estimates that 5% of accounts receivable will not be collected over the next year. Record the adjustment for uncollectible accounts. (If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

Debit Bad debt expense $7,300; Credit Allowance for doubtful accounts $7,300.

Explanation: 5% of accounts receivable of $190,000 is $9,500. Remember the credit balance in Allowance for uncollectible accounts is $2,200 prior to any adjustment and this reports to the balance sheet. To reinstate this account to the required provision for uncollectible amount of $9,500, we need to adjust for the difference (that is, $9,500 minus $2,200 existing balance), which is $7,300. Then, the entries above would be recorded.
