BUS 142 - Exercises CH 11

The appropriate accounting treatment is to record an expense and a liability based on estimated amounts. Even though the exact amounts are unknown, it is probable that costs have been incurred related to warranties provided on products sold. Recognizing an estimated expense and liability provides a better representation of the company's financial position and performance. Simply disclosing the situation in a note would not recognize the costs in the period they relate to. Not disclosing at all would omit relevant information from the financial statements.
