Explanation:

Calculation of the amount that Gum should report as estimated warranty liability on its December 31, 2009 balance sheet

First step

2% within twelve months following the sale + 4 % in the second twelve months following the sale.

Will give us 6%

Second step is to calculate the estimated warranty liability that should be reported

Sales Total of $400,000×6%

=$24,000

Hence,

Estimated warranty liability =$24,000 -Total of actual warranty expenditures of $9,750

Estimated warranty liability=$14,250

Therefore the amount that Gum should report as estimated warranty liability on its December 31, 2009 balance sheet will be $14,250
