"Our auditors require a documented bad debt provision calculation each year. Previously we provided a flat 3% estimate. Now we provide a properly aged analysis showing that our 90+ day accounts have a 60% bad debt rate while current accounts are less than 1%. The auditors accepted it immediately."

"The aging bracket analysis was the missing piece of our collection strategy. Seeing that 40% of our bad debt comes from accounts that are only 60 days overdue drove us to intervene much earlier in the collection cycle."

"We run this model at the end of each semester and present it to the board. The print output goes directly into the finance committee pack — clean, structured, and exactly the level of detail they need without being overwhelming."

"The expected collection figure is the one our CFO uses for cash flow planning. Knowing that out of 50 million receivable we can realistically collect only 44 million after provision means the budget is based on reality rather than gross receivables."
