    Sir i have a doubt in bad debts. Imagine currently the sales of a Company are 1m and bad debts are 3% of turnover. A company is planning to employ a factor and so this would reduce the bad debts to 1% and it is a “With recourse agreement”.
    Sir what would be the impact on bad debts?
    Like bad debts saving will be 1m * (3% – 1%) and the extra bad debts cost of 1% will be a cost to the company right?

    Sir another doubt. There’s a question where they haven’t mentioned whether the agreement is a recourse or non recourse agreement. But there is bad debts and so it has been treated as savings to the company. My doubt is:
    Should bad debts be treated as savings to the company if there’s no mention about recourse or non recourse agreement?
