Answer:

the amount that would be reported as Estimated Warranty Liability at the end of the year is $10,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the liability reported as estimated warranted liability is given below:

= (Defective cost - units honored) × estimated repair cost

= (20,000 units × 2% - 50 units) × $30 per unit

= (400 units - 50 units) × $30 per unit

= $10,500

Hence, the amount that would be reported as Estimated Warranty Liability at the end of the year is $10,500
