Accounts Receivable

C) Accounts Receivable

Accounts receivable are stated at estimated net realizable value. Management evaluates the need for an allowance for doubtful accounts based on a combination of historical experience, aging analysis and information on specific accounts. In cases where management is aware of circumstances that may impair a specific customer’s ability to meet its financial obligations, management records a specific allowance against amounts due and reduces the net recognized receivable to the amount that we believe will be collected. For all other customers, the Company maintains a reserve that considers the total receivables outstanding, historical collection rates and economic trends. Account balances are written off when collection efforts have been exhausted and the potential for recovery is considered remote.
