• BILLING FLOAT
  
  Float resulting from delays in billing or in the payor’s response to those bills. For governments, can also occur if payor taxpayers drag their feet in filing self-assessed taxes. When due dates are fixed, an easy measure of billing float compares the date paid to the date due.
