To address the requirements, we need to systematically perform the necessary calculations and accounting entries related to accounts receivables and the allowance for doubtful accounts.
### 1) Calculate the Estimated Bad Debts
First, we need to determine the total accounts receivable for each aging category:
#### Total Aging Analysis
1. **Not yet due**
- A Agency: Rs. 50,000
- B Agency: Rs. 70,000
- C Agency: Rs. 30,000
- D Agency: Rs. 50,000
- E Agency: Rs. 0
- **Total = Rs. 200,000**
2. **30 days past due**
- A Agency: Rs. 0
- B Agency: Rs. 80,000
- C Agency: Rs. 120,000
- D Agency: Rs. 70,000
- E Agency: Rs. 100,000
- **Total = Rs. 370,000**
3. **60 days past due**
- A Agency: Rs. 100,000
- B Agency: Rs. 250,000
- C Agency: Rs. 520,000
- D Agency: Rs. 100,000
- E Agency: Rs. 50,000
- **Total = Rs. 1,020,000**
4. **90 days past due**
- A Agency: Rs. 0
- B Agency: Rs. 0
- C Agency: Rs. 60,000
- D Agency: Rs. 80,000
- E Agency: Rs. 100,000
- **Total = Rs. 240,000**
5. **180 days past due**
- A Agency: Rs. 0
- B Agency: Rs. 70,000
- C Agency: Rs. 50,000
- D Agency: Rs. 30,000
- E Agency: Rs. 20,000
- **Total = Rs. 170,000**
6. **Over one year past due**
- A Agency: Rs. 0
- B Agency: Rs. 70,000
- C Agency: Rs. 50,000
- D Agency: Rs. 0
- E Agency: Rs. 20,000
- **Total = Rs. 140,000**
#### Likelihood for Non-Recovery Calculation:
- For **Not yet due (Rs. 200,000)**:
- Allowance = 1% of Rs. 200,000 = Rs. 2,000
- For **30 days past due (Rs. 370,000)**:
- Allowance = 2% of Rs. 370,000 = Rs. 7,400
- For **60 days past due (Rs. 1,020,000)**:
- Allowance = 3% of Rs. 1,020,000 = Rs. 30,600
- For **90 days past due (Rs. 240,000)**:
- Allowance = 5% of Rs. 240,000 = Rs. 12,000
- For **180 days past due (Rs. 170,000)**:
- Allowance = 10% of Rs. 170,000 = Rs. 17,000
- For **Over one year past due (Rs. 140,000)**:
- Allowance = 10% of Rs. 140,000 = Rs. 14,000
#### Total Estimated Bad Debts:
- Rs. 2,000 + Rs. 7,400 + Rs. 30,600 + Rs. 12,000 + Rs. 17,000 + Rs. 14,000 = Rs. 83,000
### Adjustment Calculation
#### Current Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
- Existing Allowance: Rs. 22,500
- Required Allowance: Rs. 83,000
- Additional Allowance Required: Rs. 83,000 - Rs. 22,500 = **Rs. 60,500**
### 2) Journal Entry for Allowance for Doubtful Accounts Adjustment

30-Jun-2020 Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 60,500
Allowance for Doubtful Accounts 60,500
(To adjust the allowance for doubtful accounts)
```
### 3) Net Amount of Accounts Receivables in the Balance Sheet
#### Total Accounts Receivables:
- Total Receivables calculated (totaled from all aging categories)
= Rs. 200,000 + Rs. 370,000 + Rs. 1,020,000 + Rs. 240,000 + Rs. 170,000 + Rs. 140,000
= Rs. 2,140,000
#### Total Allowance for Doubtful Accounts:
- The new total allowance for doubtful accounts = **Rs. 83,000**
#### Net Accounts Receivable:
- Net Accounts Receivable = Total Receivables - Total Allowance for Doubtful Accounts
= Rs. 2,140,000 - Rs. 83,000
= **Rs. 2,057,000**
### 4) Write-Off Accounting Entry
During July 2020, Rs. 20,000 from E Agency considered as bad debt.
