Answer:

See explanation section

Explanation:

Journal entry to be recorded -

Debit    Warranty expense          $8,000

Credit   Estimated warranty liability         $8,000

Calculation:

Net sales = $400,000

warranty expenses = 2% of the net selling price.

Therefore, estimated warranty expense = $400,000 × 2% = $8,000

Since, the company does not pay the expenses, a liability arises. Since we are estimating the value from past experience, the liability will be estimated.
