Aging Analysis of Past Due Loans

The following tables summarize the past due status of our receivables at September 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013. The aging of past due amounts is determined based on the contractual delinquency status of payments made under the terms of the receivable. An account is generally considered to be contractually delinquent when payments have not been made in accordance with the loan terms. Delinquency status is affected by customer account management policies and practices such as re-aging.
