    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?
    Trade Allowance for Net
    receivables receivables balance
    $ $ $
    A 838,000 60,000 778,000
    B 766,000 60,000 706,000
    C 766,000 108,000 658,000
    D 838,000 108,000 730,000

    I am certain the receivables is $766,000..
    However, for the allowance for receivables, I am not too certain.. is it 60,000?
    Thx..

    838,000-72000=766,000

    766,000-60,000=706,000

    answer is B
