ayco Inc. started its operations in 2022. Its sales during 2022, all on account, totalled $700,000. The company collected $500,000 in cash from customers during the year and wrote off $8,000 in uncollectible accounts. The company set up an allowance for doubtful accounts at December 31, 2022, its fiscal year-end, and determined the account balance to be $14,000.

Accounts receivable
$
300,000
Allowance for doubtful accounts (debit)
10,000
Sales revenue (including 80 percent in sales on account)
