I’m working on it, but my machine is playing up and it is getting late, so I 
will try again tomorrow.
A passing comment – the 26 minute query is more complex, so will need some 
explaining (no pun intended). I was hoping that my simplified example would 
illustrate what I think is the problem.
Anyway, here is the query -
SELECT q.cust_row_id,
SUM(CASE WHEN q.tran_date > '2015-08-31' THEN q.balance ELSE 0 END
    ) AS "balance_curr AS [DECTEXT]",
SUM(CASE WHEN q.tran_date <= '2015-08-31' AND q.tran_date > '2015-07-31' THEN 
q.balance ELSE 0 END
    ) AS "balance_30 AS [DECTEXT]",
SUM(CASE WHEN q.tran_date <= '2015-07-31' AND q.tran_date > '2015-06-30' THEN 
q.balance ELSE 0 END
    ) AS "balance_60 AS [DECTEXT]",
SUM(CASE WHEN q.tran_date <= '2015-06-30' AND q.tran_date > '2015-05-31' THEN 
q.balance ELSE 0 END
    ) AS "balance_90 AS [DECTEXT]",
SUM(CASE WHEN q.tran_date <= '2015-05-31' THEN q.balance ELSE 0 END
    ) AS "balance_120 AS [DECTEXT]"
FROM
(SELECT 
    due_trans.cust_row_id,
    due_trans.tran_date,
    trans_due.amount_cust +
        COALESCE((SELECT SUM(trans_alloc.alloc_cust+trans_alloc.disc_cust)
            FROM prop.ar_trans_alloc trans_alloc
            LEFT JOIN prop.ar_trans alloc_trans ON
                alloc_trans.tran_type = trans_alloc.tran_type
                AND alloc_trans.tran_row_id = trans_alloc.tran_row_id
            WHERE trans_alloc.due_row_id = trans_due.row_id
                AND alloc_trans.tran_date <= '2015-09-30'
            ), 0)
    AS balance
    FROM prop.ar_trans_due trans_due
    LEFT JOIN prop.ar_trans due_trans ON
        due_trans.tran_type = trans_due.tran_type
        AND due_trans.tran_row_id = trans_due.tran_row_id
    WHERE due_trans.tran_date <= '2015-09-30'
) AS q
GROUP BY q.cust_row_id
ORDER BY q.cust_row_id;

I will report back with the EXPLAIN ANALYSE tomorrow.
