For the year ended December 31, 2020, Cascadia made $6,450,000 of credit sales, wrote off $250,000 of accounts as uncollectible, and recovered $12,000 that had been written off in the prior year. The aging analysis at the end of 2020 indicates the estimated uncollectible accounts total $350,000. During the year, the company issued a note receivable.
