Solution:

1% x $88,000 = $880

That's the noncollectable estimate

$88,000 - $880 = $87,120

That's the approximate amount to be collected.

Since $69,600 has already been collected, that leaves $17,520

[ $87,120 -$69,600= $17,520 ]

This is realized but not taken into account.

The amount of net realizable value of receivables on the December 31, Year 1 balance sheet would be: $17,520
