I explain u with the help of entries:-
When u made entry for making provision:
Bad debts A/c Dr. 51000
To Provision for Doubtful debt 51000
When actual bad debt occured:
Provision for D.B Dr. 10000
To Debtor 10000
and if the total bad debt is only 10000 then:
Provision for D.B. Dr. 41000
To Bad debt recovered 41000
and if u think that there are still chances of bad debt then don't write back provision it will appear in liability side amounting to Rs.41000.
