The following information is available on January 31, 2018.

  1. Depreciation on the equipment for the month of January is calculated using the straight-line method. At the time the equipment was purchased, the company estimated a residual value of $3,000 and a two-year service life.
  2. ACME provides a quality assurance warranty on all sales, and estimates the liability associated with the warranty to be 10% of sales revenue. ACME accrues warranty expense on the last day of each month. The warranty liability covers the life of the product and so is classified as non-current.
  3. During January an appeals court ruled against ACME in a lawsuit involving a customer injury. The customer sued ACME for damages following a firework mishap. ACME now believes it is probable that it will incur a $15,000 loss associated with the claim, but it intends to pursue further appeal and the case could drag on for another couple of years.
  4. During January a customer sued ACME for damages after inadvertently igniting a Vesuvius Spark Fountain in his backpack. ACME believes the probability of incurring a loss on the claim to be remote.
  5. At the end of January, $11,000 of accounts receivable are past due, and the company estimates that 30% of these accounts will not be collected. Of the remaining accounts receivable, the company estimates that 5% will not be collected.
  6. ACME accrued interest expense on notes payable for January.
  7. ACME accrued income taxes at the end of January are $6,000.
  8. By the end of January, $3,000 of the gift cards sold on January 2 have been redeemed for fireworks set-up services.
