    =$172,000

    Explanation:

    Hall records:

    The uncollectable account had a credit balance of $ 24,000.

    A credit balance is a positive balance; there is money in the account.

    Hall wrote off $ 96,000 in the year

    new balance = $24,000 - $ 96,000

    = ($ 72,000.00)

    Allowance for doubtful accounts required $100,000.00

    Amount of uncollectable expense for the year should be

    Amount + (72,000) = 100,0000

    Amount = 100,000+72000

    =$172,000
