    Many medical organizations with average patient accounts receivable that are greater than a specified amount, not including the allowance, must compute and record an Allowance for Doubtful Accounts on their balance sheet. This accounts receivable balance should be re-evaluated on an annual basis to determine reporting status. Often, it is not known which specific accounts receivable invoices will be uncollectible. An allowance is therefore established to estimate the value of those receivables believed to be uncollectible. This entry should be “recorded so the income statement and balance sheet are fairly stated at the amount expected to be collected in receivables, thus satisfying the matching principle. The entry creates a contra accounts receivable balance. When netted against the gross total of accounts receivable, the true value of the receivables is reported” (FMS,…

    On the other hand, a recommendation to improve the financial position of Sally’s Sunglasses during the next Fiscal Year is to collect accounts receivable in a sooner period, since the expected period of time is within 30 days. However, according to the number of days sales in receivable ratio it took 47.24 days to actually collect them. A possible solution is provide customers a discount if they pay their debt within the period of 30 days. Another point to take into account is the fact that the number of days sales are in inventory it is too long, 82.60 days. This problem could be solved by lowering the number of inventory purchased so that the period of 82.60 day could be reduced into a more reasonable period of time and the company could…

    We are alarmed that the receivables turnover for the first 5 months of the current year is low. As we assume that 1970 year-end accounts receivables equals 30-days worth of 1970 annual sales. (Exhibit 2) However, through the 3 years history of the business, the day’s receivables period has consistently been approximately 32.5 days. We concur with Mr. Edward’s recommendation that CCWC must begin offering the payment option of 1%/10 net 30 to reduce the cost of carrying large receivables. It would be in the best interest of CCWC’s customer base to take advantage of the discount.…

    2. To evaluate the credit quality of Aero-Strip’s accounts receivables portfolio, we turn to their average collection period (ACP) and aging of accounts receivable. Knowing the ACP enables the firm to determine whether there is a general problem with the accounts receivable.

For Company ABC, accounts receivable turnover in 2012 is 31.43 and 31.4 in 2013 with only a 0.03 change. As compared to companies DEF and GHI, company ABC has a much higher accounts receivable turnover. It suggests that when a company has a higher turnover, a company is operating either on cash basis or its credit collection side of the company is efficient. Company DEF is in the middle, its account receivables turnover in 2012 is 13.13 but showed an increase in 2013 where turnover is 19.91. The lowest accounts receivable turnover is company GHI in year 2012, where it had 8.35, and increased to 11.86 in 2013.
