To record the estimated uncollectible amount for net credit sales on December 20, 215 for ABC organization, you would make the following entry:
Debit: Bad Debt Expense (5% of $400,000) - $20,000 Credit: Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - $20,000
This entry recognizes the estimated uncollectible amount as an expense (Bad Debt Expense) and reduces the value of accounts receivable (Allowance for Doubtful Accounts) by the same amount.
