Provisions for problematic debt

Accounts receivable that are not paid within the stipulated time period and are not backed by certain guarantees are considered doubtful or problematic. They can be identified by the results of the annual inventory. The first step is to analyze whether the debtor can close the debt. This process can last a year. During this period, the amount of debt will be indicated as a reserve. After a year, the debt that was a reserve is transferred to debt (for a period of 5 years), and then written off as a loss.
