    SECTION B - CASE 1: AeroTech Drones

    AeroTech Drones Co manufactures specialized agricultural drones. The year-end is 31 December 20X5.
    AeroTech sells its drones with a standard one-year warranty. Based on past experience, 80% of drones will have no defects, 15% will have minor defects costing $200 to repair, and 5% will have major defects costing $1,000 to repair. During 20X5, AeroTech sold 5,000 drones.

    How should the warranty provision calculated above be classified in the Statement of Financial Position at 31 December 20X5?

    Answer options:

    A.

    Entirely as a non-current liability.

    B.

    Entirely as a current liability.

    C.

    Split equally between current and non-current liabilities.

    D.

    It should not be recognized, only disclosed as a contingent liability.

    How to approach this question

    Look at the duration of the warranty. If the obligation is expected to be settled within 12 months after the reporting period, it is a current liability.

    Full Answer

    B.Entirely as a current liability.✓ Correct
    A liability is classified as current if it is expected to be settled in the entity's normal operating cycle or within twelve months after the reporting period. Since the warranty is a one-year warranty, all claims will arise and be settled within the next 12 months. Therefore, the entire provision is a current liability.

    Common mistakes

    Assuming provisions are always non-current liabilities.
