Cupola Awning Corporation introduced a new line of commercial awnings in 2013 that carry a two-year warranty against manufacturers defects. Based on their experience with previous product introductions, warranty costs are expected to approximate 2% of sales. Sales and actual warranty expenditures for the first year of selling the product were:
