Step1: Identify accounts involved
When writing off an account against the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts, we debit the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts and credit the Accounts Receivable (in this case, H. Cheng's account).
Step2: Record journal entry
Debit the Allowance for Doubtful Accounts to reduce the allowance balance as we are removing a specific uncollectible account. Credit the Accounts Receivable - H. Cheng account to remove the amount owed by H. Cheng from the accounts - receivable balance.
