The schedule that follows shows trial balances for Twain Company at the end of Year 1 and Year 2.Note that the two trial balances shown for Year 1 are the Adjusted, Preclosing Trial Balance (after making all adjusting entries) and the final Post-Closing Trial Balance, from which the firm constructs the balance sheet.The trial balance shown for the end of Year 2 is taken before adjusting entries of any kind, although the firm has periodically written off specific customers' Accounts Receivable during the year as those customers' accounts become obviously uncollectible.
Twain Company closes its books annually and makes all of its sales on account.At the end of Year 2, the management of Twain Company, along with the independent auditor, analyzes the currently outstanding Accounts Receivable.The aging schedule classifies accounts as "not yet due," "overdue less than 30 days," "overdue 30 days or more." Twain Company estimates that one-half of one percent of current accounts will become uncollectible, 5 percent of accounts overdue less than 30 days will become uncollectible, and 40 percent of accounts overdue 30 days or more will become uncollectible.From this aging of accounts receivable, the firm estimated that it will not collect $30,000 of the accounts.The auditor will use this information in making adjusting entries for Year 2.
