Letter "S" » Scott Pales Quotes
«Companies are unable to set bad debt reserves high enough to cover a default by one of the major players in these industries.»
Author: Scott Pales
«In very high concentration situations, where one buyer might represent 30 percent, 40 percent of sales or even more, it just doesn't make accounting sense to set reserves at the level otherwise called for based on the size of the receivables.
