Accounts Receivable Analysis

Starbucks uses the equity method to report receivables that consist of receivables for product and equipment sales to and royalties from their licensees and receivables from consumer-packaged goods customers.

The reported allowance for doubtful accounts was $8 million for September 30, 2018 and $9.8 million for October 1, 2017. (Starbucks 2018 10-K)
