Accounts Receivable
 
Accounts receivable is shown net of sales discounts and the allowance for doubtful accounts.

At June 30, 2016 the Company had $17,838,000 in reserves for sales discounts compared to $15,094,000 at December 31, 2015 on products shipped to our customers under various promotional programs. The increase was primarily due to additional discounts reserved on the Company's agricultural products during the pre-season, which runs from August to December of each year and orders are shipped through the second quarter of 2017. The Company reviews the reserve quarterly based on analysis made on each program outstanding at the time. 
 
The allowance for doubtful accounts was $3,550,000 at June 30, 2016 and $3,484,000 at December 31, 2015.
