Answer:

Explanation:

Difference of $28,300- $2365= $ 25,935

As $ 2365 is already credited to allowance for doubtful debts it should be deducted from the balance to make  the adjustment so the total remains the same.

Bad Debts Expense          $ 25,935 ( debit)

Allowance for Doubtful Debts                $ 25, 935 (Credit)
