    A) Dr Allowance for receivable
    Cr Receivable

    B) Dr Irrecoverable debt
    Cr Receivable

    This should not really be asked in the exam because, as I explain in my free lectures, the correct end result can be achieved using either of the two entries.

    However, if it is asked as a ‘one-off’ entry as here, then the entry to choose is the first one (A).
