Problem 10-4A Estimated product warranty liabilities LO4

On November 10, 2020, Singh Electronics began to buy and resell scanners for $54 each. Singh uses the perpetual system to account for inventories. The scanners are covered under a warranty that requires the company to replace any non-working scanner within 90 days. When a scanner is returned, the company simply throws it away and mails a new one from inventory to the customer. The companys cost for a new scanner is only $34. Singh estimates warranty costs based on 15% of the number of units sold. The following transactions occurred in 2020 and 2021 (ignore GST and PST):

2020

Nov. 15 Sold 4,000 scanners for $216,000 cash.
