If you are on 8, then you can use case. Here is a simple example.
<snippet>
SUM(
CASE
WHEN TRUNC(SYSDATE)-APS.due_date < 1 THEN
DECODE(AI.exchange_rate,
NULL, APS.amount_remaining,
ROUND(AI.exchange_rate*APS.amount_remaining,2))
ELSE
0
END ) payment_due_current,
SUM(
CASE
WHEN TRUNC(SYSDATE)-APS.due_date BETWEEN 1 AND 30 THEN
DECODE(AI.exchange_rate,
NULL, APS.amount_remaining,
ROUND(AI.exchange_rate*APS.amount_remaining,2))
ELSE
0
END ) payment_due_1_30,
SUM(
CASE
WHEN TRUNC(SYSDATE)-APS.due_date BETWEEN 31 AND 60 THEN
DECODE(AI.exchange_rate,
NULL, APS.amount_remaining,
ROUND(AI.exchange_rate*APS.amount_remaining,2))
ELSE
0
END ) payment_due_31_60,
SUM(
CASE
WHEN TRUNC(SYSDATE)-APS.due_date > 60 THEN
DECODE(AI.exchange_rate,
NULL, APS.amount_remaining,
ROUND(AI.exchange_rate*APS.amount_remaining,2))
ELSE
0
END ) payment_due_60,

select sum(decode(sign(value - 64), 1, 0, 1)) count_of_this_bucket,
sum(decode(sign(value - 129) * sign(value - 64), -1, 1, 0))
count_of_this_bucket,...
Not certain that it is as elegant as you wish, but easy to decline.
