Question

their accounts. All of Halifax's sales are for credit (no cash is collected at the time of sale). The company began 2024 with a refund
llability of $390,000. During 2024, Halifax sold merchandise on account for $12,400,000. Halifax's merchandise costs are 65% of
merchandise selling price. Also during the year, customers returned $368,000 in sales for credit, with $203,000 of those being returns
of merchandise sold prior to 2024, and the rest being merchandise sold during 2024. Sales returns, estimated to be 3% of sales, are
recorded as an adjusting entry at the end of the year.
Required:
1. Prepare entries to (a) record actual returns in 2024 of merchandise that was sold prior to 2024; (b) record actual returns in 2024
of merchandise that was sold during 2024; and (c) adjust the refund liability to its appropriate balance at year end.
