Answer:

warranty expense 10,400 (260,000 x 4%)

          warranty liablity  10,400

warranty liability   150

          wages payable  50

         inventory            100

Explanation:

we recognize the expected warranty expense at the moment of the sale.

Then expenses associate with the warranty will decrease the prevision "warranty liability"

The part used come from the company's inventory

and the wages for work on the product, will have to be paid.

Note: it could be cash directly instead of using wages payable account. But because there is no information about those wages being paid I assume are not.
