Its warranty expense is calculated as 1% of sales. Sales in 2021 were $40.8 million. What was the balance in the warranty liability account as of December 31, 2021

$43,000

Explanation:

Warranty expense for 2021 = $40.8 millions * 1%

Warranty expense for 2021 = $408,000

Balance in Liability on 31 Dec =  Warranty Liability on 1 Jan + Warranty Expenses - Warranty Expense paid

Balance in Liability on 31 Dec = $88,000 + $408,000 - $453,000

Balance in Liability on 31 Dec = $43,000

So, the balance in the warranty liability account as of December 31, 2021 is $43,000.
