Accounting

During the year ended December 31,2021, Kellys Camera Shop had sales revenue of $135,000, of which $67,500 was on credit. At the start of 2021, Accounts Receivable showed a $12,000 debit balance and the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts showed a $530 credit balance. Collections of accounts receivable during 2021 amounted to $61,000.
Data during 2021 follow:
On December 10, a customer balance of $1,150 from a prior year was determined to be uncollectible, so it was written off.

Required:
1. Give the required journal entries for the two events in December.
2-a. Show how the amounts related to Bad Debt Expense would be reported on the income statement.
2-b. Show how the amounts related to Accounts Receivable would be reported on the balance sheet.
