    Answer:The company's warranty expense for the month of November is $157,080.

    Explanation:

    Warranties expense A/c (Dr.) = $157,080

    When the repairs are actually paid, Estimated Warranty Liability will be Debited and Cash will be credited. so, The company's warranty expense for the month of November is $157,080.

    i. e. (34,000 * 3% * $154 = $157,080)
