1. Prepare the journal entry Binsford would make to record the factoring. 2. Prepare Binsford's journal entry to record any subsequent cash received from Upshaw Finance if Upshaw collects all of the factored receivables except for $2,500 resulting from a bad debt.
Bad Debts
At the end of the accounting period, a financial statement is prepared by every company, then at that time while preparing the financial statement, the company determines among its total receivable amount how much portion of receivables is collected by the company during that accounting period.
Accounts Receivable
The word “account receivable” means the payment is yet to be made for the work that is already done. Generally, each and every business sells its goods and services either in cash or in credit. So, when the goods are sold on credit account receivable arise which means the company is going to get the payment from its customer to whom the goods are sold on credit. Usually, the credit period may be for a very short period of time and in some rare cases it takes a year.
![Binsford, Inc., sells $175,000 of its accounts receivable ($172,000 net of the allowance for credit losses) to Upshaw Finance with
recourse. Upshaw immediately remits cash equal to 90% of the gross receivable amount and retains the remaining 10% to cover its
factoring fee (equal to 4% of the gross amount of factored receivables) and any bad debts under the agreement's recourse provisions.
Binsford estimates the fair value of the recourse obligation to be $4,000.
