    Given that,

    Carrying amount = $231,700

    Recourse basis = $171,500

    Fair value of recourse provision = $3,000

    Net proceeds:

    = Cash received - Recourse liability

    = $171,500 - $3,000

    = $168,500

    Loss on sale of receivables:

    = Carrying value - Net proceeds

    = $231,700 - $168,500

    = $63,200

    Therefore, the journal entry is as follows:

    Cash A/c Dr. $171,500

    Loss on sale of receivables A/c Dr. $63,200

    To recourse liability $3,000

    To Accounts Receivable $231,700

    (To record the loss on sale of receivables)
