Accounting

Halifax Manufacturing allows its customers to return merchandise for any reason up to 90 days after delivery and receive a credit to their accounts. All of Halifax's sales are for credit (no cash is collected at the time of sale). The company began 2018 with a refund liability of $390,000. During 2018, Halifax sold merchandise on account for $13,300,000. Halifax's merchandise costs it 65% of merchandise selling price. Also during the year, customers returned $386,000 in sales for credit, with $213,000 of those being returns of merchandise sold prior to 2018, and the rest being merchandise sold during 2018. Sales returns, estimated to be 3% of sales, are recorded as an adjusting entry at the end of the year.

  • Record the year-end adjusting entry for estimated returns.
