    The given above statement is false.

    Explanation:

    The given statement is false because the warranty expense of $ 8,500 should be recorded in the first year of operations itself and this is due to the accounting principle named matching principle (according to which a company will report an expense on the income statement in the year in which income related to it was earned), so the warranty expenses related to sales made during a period will be recorded in same period as sales. Where as the expenditure to repair product will be debited to warranty liability account.
