Explanation / Answer

Correct answer is D

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ending balance in A/R account = 73800 + 204000 – 1950 – 252100

                                                        = 23750

Ending balance in Allowance for doubtful debt = 3500 – 1950 + (204000* 1%)

                                                                                     = 1550 + 2040

                                                                                      = 3590

Net realizable value of receivables = 23750 – 3590

                                                               = 20160
