Brief Exercise 5-14 Use the direct write-off method to account for uncollectible accounts (LO5-6)

Brady is hired in 2021 to be the accountant for Anderson Manufacturing, a private company. At the end of 2021, the balance of Accounts Receivable is $23,500. In the past, Anderson has used only the direct write-off method to account for bad debts. Based on a detailed analysis of amounts owed, Brady believes the best estimate of future bad debts is $7,900.

Required:

1.If Anderson continues to use the direct write-off method to account for uncollectible accounts, what adjustment, if any, would Brady record at the end of 2021?(If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)

2.What adjustment, if any, would Brady record if Anderson instead uses the allowance method to account for uncollectible accounts?(If no entry is required for a particular transaction/event, select "No Journal Entry Required" in the first account field.)
