Answer:

Given:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a credit of $760

Written off accounts = $120

Accounts totaling = $740

The end-of-year balance (before adjustment) in Allowance for Doubtful Accounts will be computed as:

Allowance for Doubtful Accounts - Accounts totaling + Written off accounts

⇒ $760 - $740 + $120

⇒ $140

therefore, the correct option is (c).
