    Chelsea should report $230,000 as allowance for noncollectable accounts

    Explanation:

    Allowance in beginning = $520,000

    Allowance needed for 2021 sales = $18,000,000 x 2% = $360,000

    Total allowance balance before write off = $880,000

    Less: write off = $ 650,000

    Allowance balance at year end = $520,000 + $360,000 - $650,000

    = $230,000
