    d. $35,000

    Explanation:

    The computation of the bad debt expense for the period is shown below:

    = Estimated uncollectible amount + balance of allowance for doubtful debts

    = $28,000 + $7,000

    = $35,000

    To find out the bad debt expense we added the estimated uncollected amount and the balance of allowance for doubtful debts as it has a debit balance. And, for true amount, we added both items which are shown above.
