Blue Skies Equipment Company uses the aging approach to estimate bad debt expense at the end of each accounting year. Credit sales occur frequently on terms n$/60.$ The balance of each account receivable is aged on the basis of three time periods as follows: $(1)$ not yet due, $(2)$ up to one year past due, and $(3)$ more than one year past due. Experience has shown that for each age group, the average loss rate on the amount of the receivable at year$-$end due to uncollectibility is $($a$)3$ percent, $($b$)9$ percent, and $($c$)28$ percent, respectively.

At December $31,2022($end of the current accounting year$),$ the Accounts Receivable balance was $$51,300$ and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts balance was $$950($credit$).$ In determining which accounts have been paid, the company applies collections to the oldest sales first. To simplify, only five customer accounts are used; the details of each on December $31,2022,$ follow Brown$$Account Receivable
