demand by the lender at any time.

LAPAYAT CORPORATION, a client, requests that you compute the appropriate balance of its
estimated liability for product warranty account for a statement as of June 30, 2020.
Lapayat Corporation manufactures television components and sells them with a 6-month warranty
under which defective components will be replaced without charge. On December 31, 2019,
Estimated Liability for Product warranty had a balance of P620,000. By June 30, 2020, this balance
had been reduced to P120,400 by debits for estimated net cost of components returned that had
been sold in 2019.
Page 4 of 8 Pages
The corporation started out in 2020 expecting 7% of the peso volume of sales to be returned.
However, due to the introduction of new models during the year, this estimated percentage of
returns was increased to 10% on May 1. It is assumed that no components sold during a given
month are returned in that month. Each component is stamped with a date at time of sale so that
the warranty may be properly administered. The following table of percentages indicates the likely
pattern of sales returns during the 6-month period of the warranty, starting with the month
following the sale of components.
Percentage of Total
Month Following Sale Returns Expected
First 30%
Second 20
Third 20
Fourth through sixth—10% each month 30
100%
Gross sales of components were as follows for the first six months of 2020:
Month Amount Month Amount
January P4,200,000 April P3,250,000
February 4,700,000 May 2,400,000
March 3,900,000 June 1,900,000
The corporation’s warranty also covers the payment of freight cost on defective components
returned and on the new components sent out as replacements. This freight cost runs
approximately 5% of the sales price of the components returned. The manufacturing cost of the
components is roughly 70% of the sales price, and the salvage value of returned components
averages 10% of their sales price. Returned components on hand at December 31, 2019, were
thus valued in inventory at 10% of their original sales price.
