audit of the accounts receivable and other related accounts, certain information was obtained. The December 31, 2016 debit
balance in the Accounts Receivable control account is
P197,000. The only entries in the Bad Debts Expense account were: a credit for P324 on December 31, 2016, because
Marlisa Company remitted in full for the accounts charged off October 31, 2016, and a debit on December 31 for the amount
of the credit to the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.

The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts schedule is presented below:


Debit Credit Balance
