Mind helping with the meaning of the following sentence?
the text below is extracted from Wikipedia and is about ' bad debt'. the term is explicitly definde but I still don't get the part comprising 'crediting'
* the debt is immediately written off by crediting the debtor's account, eliminating any balance remaining there. the crediting represents a loss to the creditor.

It's an accounting term which means to assign money to an account. In an accounting equation, a "credit" is balanced by a "debit" (loss) somewhere else, in this case from a creditor. In a bad debt, the credit is given to the debtor without actual money changing hands.
