Answer:
2. Only counting final goods
Explanation:
When defining national income accounting and terminolgies, emphasis is always laid on "...total value of FINAL goods...". This is as a result of avoiding double counting. If intermediate goods were counted alongside final goods, it would be double counting because intermediate goods are used in producing those final goods. Final goods are good meant for final consumption. The other method used in avoiding double counting ( counting of the value of the same product more than once) apart from counting final gooda is Value added approach.

Soundgarden Company
Journal Entries:
July 10, 2020:
Debit Cash Account (or Accounts Receivable) $800,000
Credit Sales Revenue $800,000
To record the sale of 200 copiers at $4,000 apiece.
July 10, 2020:
Debit Warranty Expense $66,000
Credit Warranty Liability $66,000
To record the estimated warranty maintenance on copiers sold.
December 31:
Debit Warranty Liability $17,000
Credit Inventory $17,000
To record actual warranty costs incurred.
Explanation:
Soundgarden should record these transactions according to the matching principle, whereby warranty expense is recognized in the period that matches the sale so that all expenses related to sales are recognized when the sales are recognized. This is achieved by creating a warranty liability account after the sales and recording a warranty expense as the debit entry. When actual warranty costs are incurred, the Soundgarden Company will debit the warranty liability and credit the inventory actual for the actual costs.
