The Miller Company earned $190,000 of revenue on account during
Year 1. There was no beginning balance in the accounts receivable
and allowance accounts. During Year 1, Miller collected $136,000 of
cash from its receivables accounts. The company estimates that it
will be unable to collect 3% of its sales on account.
What is the net realizable value of Miller's receivables at the end
of Year 1?
Sales Revenue |
$ 190,000.00 |
Less: Cash collected |
$ 136,000.00 |
Less: Uncollectable amount ($190000 X 3%) |
$ 5,700.00 |
Net Realizable value |
$ 48,300.00 |
Question states that uncollectable amount is 3% of sales on account so total sales on account is $190000 and uncollectable amount will be calculated on $190000.
Answer- net realizable value of Miller's receivables at the end of Year 1=$ 48,300
