Abstract:
Accounts receivable collection can be improved by addressing the failure by most creditors to attempt recovery of interest on overdue accounts. Sellers are missing out on additional revenue and a reduction in the days outstanding for their invoices. By simply extending a due date for an invoice in exchange for interest on the overdue amount, (called "selling finance charges"), it has been demonstrated that sellers gain a material amount of revenue while simultaneously reducing the time their invoices remain unpaid. This white paper describes the reason for selling finance charges and the expected gains from such practice.
