All of Halifax's sales are for credit (no cash is collected at the time of sale). The company"began 2024 with a refund liability of $320,000. During 2024, Halifax sold merchandise on account for $11,700,000. Halifax's merchandise costs are 75% of merchandise selling price. Also during the year, customers returned $460,000 in sales for credit, with $255,000 of those being returns of merchandise sold prior to 2024, and the rest being merchandise sold during 2024.
