Castle Company provides estimates for its uncollectible accounts. The allowance for uncollectible accounts had a credit balance of
$17,830 at the beginning of 2024 and a $23,510 credit balance at the end of 2024 (after adjusting entries). If the direct write-off
method had been used to account for uncollectible accounts (bad debt expense equals actual write-offs), the income statement for
2024 would have included bad debt expense of $18,200 and revenue of $3,300 from the collection of previously written off bad
debts.
