Writing off the balance of a follow-up record brings the balance due to what amount?

Writing off the balance on a follow-up record means recognizing the debt as uncollectible and removing that amount from the current balance due. When this action is taken, there is no amount left owed on that record, so the balance due becomes $0.00. The other options imply that money is still owed or that nothing changed, which isn’t the case when a write-off is performed. Note that the write-off may still be tracked for accounting purposes as a bad debt, but it no longer appears as due on the follow-up record.
