11. The following occurred in 2016 but were not included in the information above:
a. Walbash has discovered that a product it began manufacturing and selling in 2016 has defective bearings, sometimes causing a wheel to fall off. Walbash has issued a recall notice in newspapers and magazines in which it offers to replace the bearings. It estimates the cost of $200,000 for these repairs. No lawsuits have been filed for injury claims, although the company feels that there is a reasonable possibility that claims may total as high as $2 million.
b. Walbash has an incinerator behind one of its stores which is used to burn cardboard boxes received in shipments of inventory. The state environmental protection agency filed suit against the company in August 2016 for air pollution. Walbash expects to stop using the incinerator and begin recycling. However, its lawyers believe that it is probable that a fine of between $40,000 and $60,000 will be levied against the company, although they cannot predict the exact amount.
c. Walbash sold 1000 software packages for $300 eachon credit (ignore cost of goods sold). With each software package, Walbash offered a premium in the form of a USB drive for the return of one proof of purchase. The offer expires June 30, 2017. The cost of each USB drive is $5 and Walbash estimates that 80% of the premiums will be redeemed. In 2016, 540 premiums were redeemed.
