Answer:

$319,000

Explanation:

The computation of the liability is shown below:

= Total expenses in three year - actual warranty expenditure

where,

Total expenses in three years = Total sales × total percentage of sales

                                                = $6,200,000 × 9%

                                                = $558,000

And, the actual warranty expenditure is $239,000

Now put these values to the above formula  

So, the value would equal to

= $558,000 - $239,000

=  $319,000

January 3: Readying costs = $4,000 ($2,840 + $1,160)

Estimated useful life = 6 years

Estimated salvage value = $14,000

Depreciable amount = $168,000 ($182,000 - $14,000)

Depreciation method = straight-line method

Annual depreciation expense = $28,000 ($168,000/6)

Accumulated depreciation at December 31, Year 5 = $140,000 ($28,000*5)

Is a promise to refrain from doing an unlawful act and, therefore, is a promise that will not support a contract.
aleksley [76]

I'm a little confused on this question however, I'm 99% sure the answer is illusory promise because an illusory promise is one that does not hold any legal weight due to it possibility being a biased and non mutual agreement and it's just a verbal contract in the place of a paper contract.

Why is the subject line of a business email important
Airida [17]

Answer:

The subject line often determines whether an email is opened and how the recipient responds. An email with a blank subject line will likely get deleted, lost, or immediately irritate the recipient, who is forced to open the email to figure out what it's about.
