Product Warranties Disclosures [Abstract] |
Product Warranty Disclosure [Text Block] | 6. Product Warranty Obligations The Company records a liability for product warranty obligations at the time of sale to a customer based upon historical warranty experience. The Company also records a liability for specific warranty matters when they become known and are reasonably estimable. The Company also sells extended warranty coverage for certain products. The sales of extended warranties are recorded as deferred revenue, and we recognize the revenue from sales of extended warranties over the life of the contracts. The Company’s product warranty obligations, including deferred revenue related to extended warranty coverage, are included in other accrued liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. The following is a tabular reconciliation of the product warranty liability, excluding the deferred revenue related to extended warranty coverage:
