The answer to each section of the question is below:
The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts will have a balance of $3,000. This is determined because net sales are $150,000 and 2% of past sales are uncollectible. 150,000 x .02 = $3,000, which would be the amount of Allowance that the company would want on the books.
The Allowance for Doubtful Accounts is a contra-asset account because it offsets the asset account of Accounts Receivable.
The correct answer is Allowance for Doubtful Accounts.
