Answer:

Ophelia Inc.

Assuming that the company utilizes the allowance method, Ophelia should record a(n):

decrease in Accounts Receivable

Explanation:

This means that the accounts receivable will be credited while the allowance for doubtful accounts is debited to record the decreased value.  The Patton Inc. account may not be recovered fully.  However, the amount of the decrease depends on the amount that can be recovered from Patton.  Thereupon, the accounts receivable will first be credited with the cash recovered with the corresponding debit entry in the Cash account.
