During the year, Port wrote off as uncollectible, accounts receivable of $850. If the ending balance of accounts receivable is $1,000 what is the amount of cash received from customers?

b. $10,750
c. $12,350
d. $14,200

c. $12,350
1,800 + 12,400 = 14,200 - 850 = 13,350 (total A/R, less write-off)
$13,350 - $1,000 = $12,350 (cash collected during period)
