The company has a two-year warranty on selected products, with an estimated cost of 1% of sales being returned in the 12 months following the sale, and a cost of 1.5% of sales being returned in months 13 to 24 following sale.

The company received $225,000 in cash for gift cards purchased during the current year and $375,000 in redemptions took place during the year. Based on past experience, 15% of customer gift card balances never get redeemed. At the end of each year, Hrudka recognizes 15% of the opening balance of Unearned Revenues as earned during the year. Instruction. For a manufacturer such as Hrudka, how should the revenue from unredeemed gift cards be shown on the income statement, as opposed to revenue from redeemed gift cards?

Solutions

Expert Solution

As per the applicable rules, Hrudka should estimate the percentage of unredeemed gift cards (also known as breakage) on a periodical basis (in proportion to the gift cards actually redeemed) and should transfer the amount of such gift cards from unearned revenue to breakage revenue/income. This percentage may change from time to time and may require revision. This percentage can be established by reviewing the historical redemption patterns. In the given case, we have been provided that Hrudka estimates that 15% of customer gift card balances never get redeemed. Hrudka should report the amount of unredeemed gift cards balance as "Breakage Income" and the amount of gift cards actually redeemed as "Sales Revenue" as the per the applicable rules. The amount of breakage income will be required to be adjusted as and when the redemption of gift cards take place. For Instance, let us assume that a redemption of $5,000 is made on a gift card and the total expected gift card redemptions during a particular month are $25,000 which is 85% of $29,412. This would result in a percentage redemeption of 20% (5,000/25,000). As a result, the company can recognize a breakage income (from unredeemed gift cards) of $882.40 [(29,412 - 25,000)*20%]. The following journal entries will be passed to recognize the earned revenue and revenue from breakage income:

Account Titles Debit Credit
Unearned Revenue $5,000
Sales $5,000
(To recognize revenue from redemption of gift cards)
Unearned Revenue $882
Breakage Income $882
(To recognize income from unredeemed gift cards)
