It is ridiculous to waste your time attempting questions for which you do not have an answer. You should be using a Revision Kit from one of the ACCA approved publishers – they have answers and explanations.
I assume that you have watched my free lectures on irrecoverable and doubtful debts, so tell me what answer you get for this question. Then I will tell you whether or not you are correct (and explain where you went wrong if you are not correct) 🙂
i have watched again your free lecture … i got my ans 6966..
thanks jhon
Yes, that is the correct answer 🙂
thanks for your free lecture
