Purchased Receivables

Purchased receivables are carried at their principal amount outstanding, net of a reserve for anticipated losses that have not yet been identified, and have a maturity of less than one year. Purchased receivable balances are charged against this reserve when management believes that collection of principal is unlikely. Management evaluates the adequacy of the reserve for purchased receivable losses based on historical loss experience by class of receivable and its assessment of current economic conditions. As of June 30, 2015, the Company has one class of purchased receivables. There were no purchased receivables past due at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014, respectively, and there were no restructured purchased receivables at June 30, 2015 or December 31, 2014.

Income on purchased receivables is accrued and recognized on the principal amount outstanding using an effective interest method except when management believes doubt exists as to the collectability of the income or principal. As of June 30, 2015, the Company is accruing income on all purchased receivable balances outstanding.
