Commodity-trading receivables written off as bad debts qualify for deduction where they were previously included in income and written off in the books; a possible future recovery does not justify disallowance. Characterising the transactions as speculative or the amount as capital investment does not displace fulfilment of those conditions.

That computation was remanded for fresh adjudication.
