## What it means for a shop owner

It lifts sales and wins loyal customers, but it ties your cash up with other people. Give each customer a limit and a due date, and review the statement often so the debt does not turn into a forgotten notebook.

## A worked example

You sell 300 to a customer who will pay in 15 days. 300 shows as a receivable until he pays, and if he pays 100 of it, 200 is still owed.
