Answer:
the journal entry to record warranty expense is:
Dr Warranty expense 30,000
Cr Warranty liability 30,000
the journal entry to record actual expenses related to product warranties:
Dr Warranty liability 10,000
Cr Cash (or inventory, or wages payable) 10,000
Depending on what type of costs are incurred by the company, the account credited will vary, e.g. if units are replaced, then inventory must be credited, or if units are repaired and only labor is used, then wages payable or cash should be credited. Since the question doesn't give us a lot of details, I credited cash.

Answer: reduced by $80 billion
Explanation:
An expansionary gap is when the actual output is more than the potential output. From the question, we are told that an economy is operating with output $400 billion above its natural level, and fiscal policymakers want to close this expansionary gap and that the central bank agrees to adjust the money supply to hold the interest rate constant, so there is no crowding out.
We are also given the marginal propensity to consume is 4/5, and told that the price level is completely fixed in the short run.
To close the expansionary gap, the government would need to reduce its spending. To solve this, we have to calculate the multiplier. This will be:
Multiplier = 1/(1 - MPC)
= 1/(1 - 4/5)
= 1/1-0.8
= 1/0.2
= 5
Therefore, the government expenditure or spending will be reduced by:
= $400 billion/5
=$80 billion
<span>The manager will weigh the pros and cons of each alternative before implementing the solution. The manager should look at each alternative and list the benefits and the negatives for each alternative. After reviewing the list of benefits and negatives for each alternative, the manager can eliminate the alternatives that possess too many negatives or cons. The alternatives with the most benefits should be considered more carefully. The manager should then implement the alternatives with the most benefits or pros on a trial basis. The alternative with the best results is the one that is deemed useful, permanent and beneficial to the company.</span>
