You read in the newspaper that Travis Corporation, a major customer of Davenport, is in financial difficulty. Included in Davenports accounts receivable is 50,000 (a material amount) owed to it by Travis.

Required: From financial reporting and ethical perspectives, prepare a response to Jim Davenport regarding this issue.
