PPI's policy is to record an allowance equal to 3% of outstanding receivable balances at year end. At December 31, 2022, PPI had outstanding receivable balances of $45,690 and recorded an allowance for doubtful accounts of $1,400. At December 31, 2023, the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts was $2,503.
