Alan is debating between two versions of the
following.

Version 1:

Total unpaid amount Not overdue amount
273,58 85,60

Overdue amounts
1-30days 31-60days 61-90days 90+days
120,53 67,45

Version 2:

Total unpaid amount Amount not overdue
273,58 85,60

Amounts overdue
1-30days 31-60days 61-90days 90+days
120,53 67,45

I vote for version 2 of the first line. "Amount not
overdue" is less convoluted. As for the second line
the two versions seem about equal to me.
