ACCOUNTING 706 MODULE 5 Homework: Accounting for Receivables and Bad Debts Under Armour, Inc. Annual Report (20 points) In their 2016 Annual Report, Under Armour Inc. disclosed the following in Note 2; Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (p. 63): Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Company makes ongoing estimates relating to the collectability of accounts receivable and maintains an allowance for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its customers to make required payments. In determining the amount of the reserve, the Company considers historical levels of credit losses and significant economic developments within the retail environment that could impact the ability of its customers to pay outstanding balances and makes judgments about the creditworthiness of significant customers based on ongoing credit evaluations. Because the Company cannot predict future changes in the financial stability of its customers, actual future losses from uncollectible accounts may differ from estimates. If the financial condition of customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make payments, a larger reserve might be required. In the event the Company determines a smaller or larger reserve is appropriate, it would record a benefit or charge to selling, general and administrative expense in the period in which such a determination was made. As of December 31, 2016 and 2015, the allowance for doubtful accounts was $11.3 million and $5.9 million, respectively.
