Answer:

B. $3,470

Explanation:

An income statement approach to estimate bad debts involves the estimation of bad debt as a percentage of credit sales.

Given the following information about Sheldon Company;

net credit sales = $40,000

Accounts Receivable = $11,500

Allowance for Bad Debts = $670

Estimate of bad debts = 7% × $40,000

                                     = $2,800

Ending balance in the Allowance for Bad Debts account = $2,800 + $670

= $3,470
