Concentrations of Risk
ОглавлениеExample 7.10: Concentration of Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of cash. The Company places its cash with high quality banking institutions. The Company had cash balances in excess of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limit as of December 31, 20X1.
Example 7.11: Concentration of Risk Accounts receivable are primarily from wholesale accounts, for landlord lease inducements, and from license and supply arrangements. The Company does not require collateral to support the accounts receivable; however, in certain circumstances, the Company may require parties to provide payment for goods prior to delivery of the goods. The accounts receivable are net of an allowance for doubtful accounts, which is established based on management's assessment of the credit risk of the underlying accounts.
Cash and cash equivalents are held with high‐quality financial institutions. The amount of cash and cash equivalents held with certain financial institutions exceeds government‐insured limits. The Company is also exposed to credit‐related losses in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the forward currency contracts. The credit risk amount is the Company's unrealized gains on its derivative instruments, based on foreign currency rates at the time of nonperformance. The Company has not experienced any losses related to these items, and it believes credit risk to be minimal. The Company seeks to minimize its credit risk by entering into transactions with credit‐worthy and reputable financial institutions and by monitoring the credit standing of the financial institutions with whom it transacts. It seeks to limit the amount exposure with any one counterparty.
The Company's derivative contracts contain certain credit risk‐related contingent features. Under certain circumstances, including an event of default, bankruptcy, termination, and cross‐default under the Company's revolving credit facility, the Company may be required to make immediate payment for outstanding liabilities under its derivative contracts.
