Answer and Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

a. Amount of adjusting entry for uncollectible accounts

= Estimated balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts + debit balance

= $16,400 + $4,000

= $20,400

b. Adjusted balances

For account receivable

= account receivable

= $420,000

For allowance for doubtful debts

= Estimated amount

= $16,400

For bad debts

= AMount of adjusting entry

= $20,400

c. Net realizable value

= Account receivable balance - estimated balance of Allowance for Doubtful Accounts

= $420,000 - $16,400

= $403,600
