If collection is expected beyond one year, these receivables are classified as noncurrent assets and reported under the caption Investments. 9 10 Click to edit Master title style Objective 2 9-2 Describe the nature of and the accounting for uncollectible receivables. 10 11 Click to edit Master title style 9-2 Companies often sell their receivables to other companies. This transaction is called factoring the receivables, and the buyer of the receivables is called a factor. 11 12 Uncollectible Receivables Click to edit Master title style 9-2 There are two methods of accounting for receivables that appear to be uncollectible: the direct write off method and the allowance method. 12 13 Click to edit Master title style 9-2 The direct write off method records bad debt expense only when an account is judged to be worthless. The allowance method records bad debt expense by estimating uncollectible accounts at the end of the accounting period. 13 14 Click to edit Master title style Objective 3 9-3 Describe the direct writeoff method of accounting for uncollectible receivables. 14 15 Direct Write-Off Method Click to edit Master title style 9-3 On May 10, a Rp4,200,000 accounts receivable from D.
