Answer:

D) $8,040

Explanation:

Credit Sales Method:

Bad Debt Losses = 3% of Credit Sales

Bad Debt Losses = 0.03 x $588,000

Bad Debt Losses = $17,640

Adjusted balance in the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:

Bad Debt Losses - (uncollectible accounts receivable - Allowance for Doubtful Accounts)

$17,640 - ($24,000 - $14,400)

$17,640 - $9,600

$8,040
