For the test Q1 why do we subtract last years all. for rec. (93.600)?
Why is the answer not 146.400?

It is best place to study great explanation thank you soooooo much
Thanks first. 100% helpful. Firstly I read lecture then I tried to do exercise my self. I faced difficulty in example 2 & 3. Now I am totally clear after I listen video.
Thanks again
yeah helpfull
this player is better than old 1!
thanks for material
Thanks for generosity. Your lessons are very helpful.
at the risk of sounding like a complete fool, i have to ask this question. During the video, you explain Paul’s payment of 2200 would be CREDITED to the irrecoverable and doubtful debts expense account. I understand the logic behind this, but as I was doing some practice questions from BPP, a similar question expected me to put recovered amount into an ‘irrecoverable debt recovered’ account and therefore did not specifically affect the charge in the income statement for bad and doubtful debts. From the point of view of the ACCA, which would you think is the correct treatment?
Kindest Regards,
Rob

You can credit an irrecoverable debt recovered account, but this would then appear on the income statement as a negative expense.
Usually questions just want the net expense in the Income Statement which is why it is easier simply to credit the expense account.
hi – thanks for the great explanations. Please could you tell me where to look for the answers to the test questions at the end.
