      Question

      An amount received from Seema, whose account was

      previously written off as Bad Debts, should be debited to:
      A Bad Debts Recovered Account Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Seema's Account Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Cash Account Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Bad Debts Account Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      When an amount is received from a debtor whose account was previously written off as Bad Debts, it is recorded as a recovery of bad debts. The entry would typically involve crediting the Bad Debts account to reverse the earlier write-off and debiting the Cash Account (or Bank Account) to reflect the cash received. So, the correct entry would be: Debit: Cash Account Credit: Bad Debts Recovered Account
