During your examination of the 2006 financial statements of the Narvacan Company you find that
the company does not provide allowance for doubtful accounts ever since it started operations in
2002. The company’s practice is to directly write-off as expense doubtful accounts and credit
recoveries to income. The company’s contracts are generally for two years.
Upon your recommendation, the company agreed to change its accounts for 2006 to give effect to
doubtful treatment on the allowance basis. The allowance is to be based on a percentage of sales
which is derived from the experience of prior years. Statistics for 2002 to 2006 are shown as
follows:
