Warranty Reserve (cont)
When warranty work is performed: Expenses are charged to a warranty labor and a warranty parts expense accounts. Warranty part credits are credited to the warranty parts expense account when they’re received. At the end of the month the warranty reserve account is adjusted to balance the warranty expense accounts. It should be a wash.

Warranty Reserve (cont)
Think of the warranty reserve account as a bucket If the bucket runs dry, you’re warranty costs are higher than what you planned for. You’ll need to increase the warranty amount set aside on each job. If you’re warranty costs come in less than expected, the bucket will be full and overflowing. At the end of the year, you’ll need to make adjustments to recognize this additional gross margin.
