Definitions for "Aging schedule"
a useful way to evaluate your receivables that are past due
a vital tool in analyzing the quality of a company’s receivables investment. Most often seen as: (1) a list of the amount of receivables by the month in which they were created; (2) a list of receivables by maturity, classified as current or as being in various stages of delinquency. The aging schedule reveals patterns of delinquency and shows where collection efforts should be concentrated. It helps in evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for BAD DEBTS, because the longer accounts stretch out the more likely they are to become uncollectible. Using the schedule can help prevent the loss of future sales, since old customers who fall too far behind tend to seek out new sources of supply.
A list of accounts receivable broken down by number of days until due or past due.
