Question

Among the transactions of WRY TO TWIST Company for the first two quarters of 20x1 were the following:

WRY recognized a ₱200,000 write-down in its inventory during the first quarter. WRY had expected that the write-down will reverse in the second quarter, and in fact, in the second quarter, the recovery exceeded the previous write-down by ₱40,000.
WRY provides warranty for its sales. In the first quarter, WRY estimated a 5% warranty obligation on its first quarter sales of ₱2,000,000. In the second quarter, a change in accounting estimate was made. It was estimated that the cost of warranty should be 10% of total sales. The second quarter sales amounted to ₱2,400,000.
WRY has been estimating its bad debt expense as 2% of credit sales. However, in the second quarter, a change was made to the percentage of ending receivable. Under this method, the required balance of the allowance for doubtful accounts as of June 30, 20x1 is computed at ₱60,000. The allowance has a balance of ₱10,000 at the beginning of the year. Total write-offs during the first six months of 20x1 amounted to ₱24,000; recoveries totaled ₱6,000. Credit sales for the 1st and 2nd quarters amounted to ₱2,000,000 and ₱4,000,000, respectively.
