Receivables and Allowance for Doubtful Accounts [Abstract]

Receivables

Receivables consist of the following:

(in thousands)	June 30, 2024		December 31, 2023
Installment sales receivables	$	60,122	$	62,901
Trade and notes receivables(1)	68,779		62,358
Total receivables	128,901		125,259
Less allowance for doubtful accounts(2)	(13,751)		(14,254)
Total receivables, net of allowance for doubtful accounts	$	115,150	$	111,005

(1) Trade and notes receivables includes accrued revenue, adjusted for the probability of collection, related to our lease-to-own agreements of $40.3 million and $36.8 million at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

(2) Lease receivables are accrued on a net basis, adjusted for the probability of collection based on our assessment of historical collection rates, as described above. Therefore, we do not maintain a separate allowance for doubtful accounts related to our lease receivables.
