The document discusses two approaches to evaluating credit policies: the total approach evaluates all aspects of a company's credit policies together, while the incremental approach evaluates potential changes to credit policies individually and their incremental impact. The total approach involves preparing statements showing the estimated amount of sales, estimated collection period, carrying cost of receivables, and expected losses from bad debts under the proposed credit policies. The incremental approach involves identifying current policies, proposed policy changes, and estimating the incremental impact of each change on variables like sales, collection period, costs, and losses.
