EZ Wheels Corporation manufactures kick scooters. The company offers a one-year warranty on all scooters. During 2017, the company recorded net sales of $5,300 million. Historically, about 3% of all sales are returned under warranty and the cost of repairing and or replacing goods under warranty is about 20% of retail value. Assume that at the start of the year EZ Wheels' balance sheet included an accrued warranty liability of $16.3 million and at the end of the year, the accrued warranty liability balance was $12.4 million. What was EZ Wheels Corporation's warranty expense for 2017

Answer:

EZ Wheels Corporation's warranty expense for 2017 is $31.80 million.

Explanation:

EZ Wheels Corporation's warranty expense for 2017 can be calculated using the following formula:

Warranty expense for 2017 = Net sale for 2017 * Percentage sales returned under warranty * Percentage of retail value for cost of repairing and or replacing goods under warranty ................. (1)

Where:

Net sale for 2017 = $5,300 million

Percentage sales returned under warranty = 3%

Percentage of retail value for cost of repairing and or replacing goods under warranty = 20%

Substituting the values into equation (1), we have:

Warranty expense for 2017 = $5,300 million * 3% * 20% = $31.80 million

Therefore, EZ Wheels Corporation's warranty expense for 2017 is $31.80 million.

Answer:

$51.6 Million

Explanation:

Warranty expenses =5,300*3%*30% = 47.7 Million

Beginning Waranty Liability              $16.3 Million

Add: Warranty expenses                   $47.7 Million

                                                            $64 Million

Less: Ending Warranty liability           $12.4 Million

Amount paid on Warranty expenses $51.6 Million

Three friends are trying to decide what to do on Saturday night. The options are to go to a party, go see a play, or hang out at their apartment. Abdul prefers to see a play over going to the party, which he prefers to hanging out. Gina prefers to hang out over seeing a play, which she prefers to going to the party. Shaquille would most like to go to the party, his second choice is to hang out, and the play is his least preferred option. In the spirit of democracy, they decide to vote on their options. In a three-way vote, they each vote for a different choice, leading to a tie and failing to solve their problem. They thus decide to consider the options in pairs.
(1 point) Shaquille suggests that they first vote on hanging out versus going to the play and then vote on the winner of that versus going to the party. Which option will be chosen?
Choose one:
A. Go to the play.
B. Go to the party.
C. Hang out.

Mortgage loans vary with the preferences of the individual lender and the borrower In general, mortgage loans can be differentiated according to their terms of payment, their down payment requirements, and whether they are insured or guaranteed. Mortgage loans, or loans that use as collateral, are made by commercial banks, thrift institutions, and mortgage bankers. In addition to these traditional sources, mortgage brokers also solicit borrowers and originate a large volume of these loans. Brokers often place their loans with these traditional mortgage lenders as well as with Which of the following statements accurately describe the similarities and differences between mortgage bankers and mortgage brokers? Check all that apply.
