A company uses the aging of accounts receivable method to estimate its bad debts expense. On December 31 of the current year an aging analysis of accounts receivable revealed the following:

Accounts Receivable	Account Age	Estimated Uncollectible
$ 620,000	Not due yet	0.5%
270,000	1-30 days overdue	2.0
145,000	31-60 days overdue	8.0
55,000	61-90 days overdue	20.0
32,000	91-120 days overdue	50.0
18,000	Over 120 days overdue	70.0
$1,140,000	Total
