Warranty embedded vs extended
Hey this question I have answered but I am not sure whether I am 100% correct. So please help.
A local dealership sells cars with a 2-year embedded warranty. In addition, the company offers separately a warranty for years 3 & 4. During 2009 the dealership sold 4,000 cars at an average price of $20,000. 40% of the car buyers each purchased the extended warranty for years 3 & 4 for $2,000. The cars are sold evenly throughout the year and therefore, to simplify your calculations you can assume that all sales took place in the middle of the year. The dealership expects the costs to serve the warranties to be as follows:
Year 1 & 2 (embedded warranty): $400 per year
Year 3 (extended warranty): $600
Year 4 (extended warranty): $900
Over the years 2009 -2011 the dealership incurred the following warranty costs:
2009: 700,000
2010: 1,600,000
2011: Related to the embedded warranty – 980,000, related to the extended warranty – 800,000
