When is Accounts Receivable a Problem?
As a CPA or Architecture firm, you understand the importance of maintaining healthy cash flow. But even with the most diligent bookkeeping, accounts receivable (AR) can become a headache. The question is: when does a temporary delay in payment turn into a serious problem?
Here at Penny Empire, we work closely with CPA firms to help them identify and address problematic AR situations.Here are some key signs that your clients' accounts receivable might need a closer look:
Rising Days Sales Outstanding (DSO): DSO measures the average time it takes to collect payment on invoices.A steady increase in DSO indicates a potential slowdown in collections.
A Surge in Late Payments: Are you noticing a growing number of invoices past their due date? This could be a sign of underlying issues with customer creditworthiness or your client's collection process.
Customer Disputes: Disputes on invoices can tie up funds and strain client relationships. A spike in disputes suggests a need to improve invoicing accuracy or communication with customers.
