Answer:

Missing word "A company uses the percent of sales method to determine its bad debts expense. At the end of the current year, the company's unadjusted trial balance reported the following selected amounts: Accounts receivable $350,000 debit, Allowance for uncollectible accounts 650 debit, Net Sales 795,000 credit"

Net credit sales = $795,000

Bad debt expense = 0.3% * Net credit sales

Bad debt expense = $795,000 * 0.3%

Bad debt expense = $2,385

                                            Adjusting entry

Date   General Journal                                              Debit      Credit

           Bad debt expense                                         $2,385

                   Allowance for uncollectible accounts                 $2,385
