ABC Company sells 300 machines for $5000 each in the current year. Each machine carries a one-year warranty. Experience from the sale of similar machines in the past show warranty costs will average $100 per machine. ABC Company spent $10,000 to fulfill warranty agreements in the current year. What is the journal entry to accrue the remainder of warranty costs in the current year

the journal entry to record warranty expense is:

Dr Warranty expense 30,000

    Cr Warranty liability 30,000

the journal entry to record actual expenses related to product warranties:

Dr Warranty liability 10,000

    Cr Cash (or inventory, or wages payable) 10,000

Depending on what type of costs are incurred by the company, the account credited will vary, e.g. if units are replaced, then inventory must be credited, or if units are repaired and only labor is used, then wages payable or cash should be credited. Since the question doesn't give us a lot of details, I credited cash.

i'm pretty sure the answer is 60.
