Answer:Yes. To increase the allowance for doubtful accounts, expenses are incurred. Uncollectible accounts expense is debited, and the allowance is credited.The allowance is a buffer to absorb defaults. If the allowance is too high, the journal entry to increase the allowance is reversed. In other words, a debit to the allowance, and a credit to the uncollectible accounts expense. The reversal increases net income (as expenses are reduced).
