***Bad debts account are nominal accounts used to minimize the amount of accounts receivable on the income statement ***Record the journal entry by debiting bad debt expense and crediting allowance for doubtful accounts. When you decide to write off an account, debit allowance for doubtful accounts and credit the corresponding receivables account. I hope it helps you
