Answer:

Bed debts expenses = $28,100

Explanation:

Given:

Accounts Receivable = $130,000

Allowance for Uncollected Accounts = $2,100 (debit)

Uncollected accounts = 20% of accounts receivable

Computation of Uncollected accounts :

= 20% x Accounts receivable

= 20% x $130,000

= $26,000

Total Bed debts = $26,000 + $2,100

= $28,100
