Provision for bad debt at 4% of sundry debtors.
Determine the provision for bad debts to profit and loss account?
N500
N820
N1300
N300
Correct answer is D
The business owner made a provision of 500 as bad debt. Total debt owed was 20,000. At the end of the period, bad debts was 4%. Hence we have;
4% x 20000
0.04 x 20000 = 800
we subtract the total bad debt from the amount that was initially provided for bad debt and charge it to the profit and loss account as a expense
Provision for bad debts = 500
800 - 500 = 300
