Warranty Service Contracts Customer pays fixed rate in advance for all

repairs and/or maintenance for a specified time period. Services they are not entitled to under standard warranty.

Upon receipt, this payment creates a liability (unearned revenue) for the service provider.

Liability is reduced over the life of the service contract as revenue is earned.

Contract was priced originally so that revenues will exceed expenses (estimated) which will allow the provider to show a profit on the service contracts.
