Explanation:

accounts receivable $375,000

allowance for uncollectible accounts $500

net sales $800,000, all on credit

estimated bad debts = net credit sales x 0.6% = $800,000 x 0.6% = $4,800

since the balance of the allowance account is just $500, it must e adjusted to include the remaining estimated bad debt = $4,800 - $500 = $4,300

the journal entry should be:
