Using data from:

"Page 8" graph & data

One thing you should note about the original bar chart is that the 
response (height) axis does not start at zero - this is a big no-no
for bar charts ... the response axis should always start at 0.

I created my bar chart with the "chopped" axis (like the original)
to show that SAS can do that, but I also created another version of
the bar chart with the axis starting at zero.  And I also show a 3rd
version which I think might be even better (only showing the non-current
debt).
