At year-end (December 31), Chan Company estimates its bad debts as 0.80% of its annual credit sales of $831,000.

Chan records its Bad Debts Expense for that estimate. On the following February 1, Chan decides that the $416
account of P. Park is uncollectible and writes it off as a bad debt. On June 5, Park unexpectedly pays the amount
previously written off.
