    Figuring estimated liability
    In an effort to incease sales, Rofix Company began a sales promotion campaign on June 30,2011. Part of this promotion included placing a spcail coupon in each package of candy bars sold. Customers were able to redeem ten coupons for a Frisbee. Each premium costs Rofix $1.50. Rofix estimated that 60 percent of the coupons issued will be redeemed. For the six months ended Deceember 31, 2011, the following information is given:
    Packages for candy bars sold... 3,200,000
    Premiums purchased... 172,000
    Coupons redeemed... 1,425,000
    What is the estimated liability for premiun claims outstanding at Dec. 31,2011?

    I will like help figuring this out.:confused:
