The correct answers are:
An aged receivables analysis shows how long invoices for each customer have been outstanding
Receivables are included in the statement of financial position net of the receivables allowance
解析An aged receivables analysis shows the outstanding balances owed by each customer analysed by how long they have been outstanding, usually 30, 60 and 90+ days. The receivables allowance is deducted from the receivables balance in the statement of financial position.
A credit limit is set by the credit control department of the business and is the maximum amount of credit each customer of that business can have. Credit limits are not applied to cash sales.
