Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is option 3- Cash A/c by ₹9,900.
Debtors = 17,000
Bad debts = 500
Remaining debtors = 17,000 -500
= 16,500
This 16,500 realised at 60%
Realisation amount = 16,500 x 60/100
= ₹9,900
Journal entry for this-
Cash A/c Dr. ₹9,900
To Realisation A/c ₹9,900
So, cash account is debited with 9,900.
