Answer:

On September 11, 2016, Home Store sells a mower for $490 cash with a one-year warranty that covers parts

Recording of revenue:

Cash $490 (debit)

Revenue $490 (credit)

Recording of Warranty granted :

Assurance Warranty expense $49.00 (debit)

Warranty Provision $49.00 (credit)

$490 × 10% = $49.00

On July 24, 2017, the mower is brought in for repairs covered under the warranty requiring $34 in materials taken from the Repair Parts Inventory

When warranty is subsequently received:

Warranty Provision $ 34 (debit)

Repair Parts Inventory $ 34 (credit)

Step-by-step explanation:

On September 11, 2016, Home Store sells a mower for $490 cash with a one-year warranty that covers parts

Recording of revenue:

Cash $490 (debit)

Revenue $490 (credit)

We Recognise Revenue to depict transfer of control of mower

Recording of Warranty granted :

Assurance Warranty expense $49.00 (debit)

Warranty Provision $49.00 (credit)

$490 × 10% = $49.00

There is no option for customer to take the warranty or not, so this is a service warranty.The warranty is measured at the best estimate of expenditure required to settle the obligation that is at 10% of sales.

On July 24, 2017, the mower is brought in for repairs covered under the warranty requiring $34 in materials taken from the Repair Parts Inventory

When warranty is subsequently received:

Warranty Provision $ 34 (debit)

Repair Parts Inventory $ 34 (credit)

Utilise the Warranty Provision when the warranty claim is subsequently received
