Focus is on determining the desired balance in the Allowance for Doubtful
Accounts on the balance sheet.

Aging Schedule
Each customer’s account is aged by separating the total amount owed by each customer into
aging categories based on the number of days that have passed since uncollected amounts
were first recorded in the account.
Let’s look on the next slide to see an aging of accounts receivable for Skechers (all amounts
in thousands).
