How does this work from an accounting perspective? They write off a bad debt, but the actual loss is likely multiple orders of magnitude less. Do they only get to write off up to the actuals?

Marketing probably, unless thew CEO pulls out his credit card

Alternatively, bill the costs under the PR department as a marketing campaign.

You deduct the expenses you paid, not the income you hoped to earn.
