Answer:

The answer is: The collection of an account.

Explanation:

Both cash and accounts receivable are asset accounts. When an asset account is debited it means it increases (cash increased by $5,000). When an asset account is credited, it means it decreases (accounts receivable decreased by $5,000).

So if accounts receivable decreased and cash increased, it means that an account was collected.
