Answer:

$3,100

Explanation:

Step 1: Draw up the Accounts Receivable Account

Opening Balance  $600          Allowance for Doubtful debt   $200

Sales                       $3,200       Cash Collected                        $3,100

                                                   Closing Balance                       $500

                                $3,800                                                         $3,800    

To calculate the cash collected from customers

first, add the debit side of the accounts receivable which is a sum of the opening balance and sales= 3,800

Secondly, add the figures in the credit side including allowance for doubtful debt and closing balance= $700

Thirdly, Subtract the lesser side from the greater, $3,800 - $700 = $3,100

$3,100 was cash collected from the customers in 2016
