Product Warranties Disclosures [Abstract] |
PRODUCT WARRANTIES | PRODUCT WARRANTIES The Company accrues for warranty costs as part of its cost of sales based on associated material product costs, technical support, labor costs, and costs incurred by third parties performing work on the Company’s behalf. The Company’s expected future costs are primarily estimated based upon historical trends in the volume of product returns within the warranty period and the costs to repair or replace the equipment. When products sold include warranty provisions, they are covered by a warranty for periods ranging generally from one year to two years. While the Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of component suppliers, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, material usage, and service delivery costs incurred in correcting a product failure. Should actual product failure rates, material usage or service delivery costs differ from the estimates, revisions to the estimated warranty accrual and related costs may be required. Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability during the first three quarters of fiscal 2019 are as follows:
(In millions) |
Balance as of fiscal year end 2018 | $ | 15.3 |
Accruals for warranties issued | 14.9 |
Changes in estimates | 0.4 |
Warranty settlements (in cash or in kind) | (15.7 | )
Balance as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2019 | $ | 14.9 |
