On January 1, Mason sold 5,000 stereo systems for $3,000 each (cost $1,800). The stereo systems included an assurance-type warranty for the first year, and are estimated to cost $350 each. Mason also sold 2,000 optional extended coverage plans under which it will repair or replace any defective part for 2 years beyond the expiration of the assurance-type warranty. Determine each of the following as of December 31:
A. Sales Revenue
B. Unearned Revenue
C. Warranty liability
D. Warranty expense
A.
Service Revenue = 5,000 X $3,000 = $15,000,000
B.
Unearned Revenue = 2,000 X ($3,000 X $350 / ($1,800 + $350) = $980,000
C.
Warranty liability = 5,000 X $350 = $1,750,000
D.
Warranty expense = 5,000 X $350 = $1,750,000
