At 1 July 2005 a company’s allowance for receivables was $48,000.
At 30 June 2006, trade receivables amounted to $838,000. It was decided to
write off $72,000 of these debts and adjust the allowance for receivables to
$60,000.
What are the final amounts for inclusion in the company’s balance sheet at
30 June 2006?

However, for the allowance for receivables, I am not too certain.. is it 60,000?

838,000-72000=766,000
766,000-60,000=706,000
