    Hello sir,
    i am just going through the kaplan study text and i just need clarification on warranty costs this is what was included in the trial bal
    Warranty provision 90,000
    The year end provision for warranty claims has been estimated at
    $75,000. Warranty costs are charged to administrative expenses.
    Administration ((20% × 30) + 170 – 15) this is the calculation.
    my question is why are they subtracting 15kisnt provision an exp ? by subtracting it they are treating as an income ?

    thanks in advance

    Hi,

    It isn’t income, it is the reduction in the liability from 90,000 to 75,000 which corresponds to an expense.

    Thanks
