Explanation / Answer

Allowance for uncollectible accounts = $50300 x 8% = $4024

Uncollectible accounts expense = $4024 - ($2640 - $700) = $2084

Net realizable value: $46276

Net realizable value of accounts receivable at December 31, 2019 = Accounts receivable $50300 - Allowance for uncollectible accounts $4024 = $46276
