Recent Review:

Charles N. says "Fantastic course, really helps round out my accounting knowledge.  Some things just aren't taught in class, and while university does touch on bad debts, until you really are in the real world you don't grasp what they are and how the accounting is done.  Chris brings the real world to the classroom, definitely appreciated!"

Why You Should Take This Course With Me:

Accounts Receivable is a very important area of your company, it's where the sales the company makes are converted to actual funds.  Managing Accounts Receivable is a skill set of its own, and incorporates much more than people realize.  One example is exactly what we will be learning in this course - accounting for accounts receivable reserves and bad debt expense.  Learn the different methodologies to calculate reserves, the proper accounting at each step from creating a reserve to writing off an actual account, and how to build an effective tool to calculate and track your accounts receivable reserves and write offs. 

What We Learn In The Course:

• Understand the purpose of accounts receivable reserves and bad debt write offs

• Demonstrate the creation of a tool in Excel to calculate and track both specific and general reserves

• Review the presentation on the financial statements

• Look at the journal entries for each step 

• And more! By the end of the course you'll be a accounts receivable expert!

At any point if you have a question, please feel free to ask through the course forum, I'd be happy to answer any and all questions.
