Dominique · Answer 1

Accounts receivable to be reported at the end of 2019 = $1090000

Explanation:

Assuming that all sales are made on credit.

The opening accounts receivable were = $ 1200000

We add the credit sales made during the year to the opening balance of accounts receivable to reach at total accounts receivable.

Total accounts receivable = 1200000 + 6250000 = 7450000

We deduct the amount received from customers against these sales to reach at the closing balance for accounts receivables.

Closing balance Accounts receivables 2019 = 7450000 - 6360000 = $1090000
