Answer:

$395,000

Explanation:

Bad Debt expense:

= 1.5% of sales will be uncollectible

= 1.5% × $1,000,000

= 0.015 × $1,000,000

= $15,000

Allowance for Doubtful accounts:

= Bad Debt expense - accounts receivable written off

= $15,000 - $10,000

= $5,000

Net realizable value:

= Accounts receivable - Allowance for Doubtful accounts

= $400,000 - $5,000

= $395,000
