    The write off of the account should include a debit to the allowance for uncollectible accounts, and a credit for bad debt expense:

    Account Debit Credit

    Bad Debt Expense $10,000

    Allowance for Uncollectible

    Accounts $10,000

    This is because under the aging method, when an account is actually written-off, it must be charged against the bad debt expense that was forecasted or anticipated earlier.
