Product Warranty
 
The Company offers warranties of various lengths to its customers depending on the specific product and terms of the customer purchase agreement. The average length of the warranty period is
one
year from date of purchase. The Company’s warranties require it to repair or replace defective products during the warranty period at
no
cost to the customer. The Company records a liability for estimated costs that
may
be incurred under its warranties. The costs are estimated based on historical experience and any specific warranty issues that have been identified. Although historical warranty costs have been within expectations, there can be
no
assurance that future warranty costs will
not
exceed historical amounts. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liability and adjusts the balance as necessary.
 
Changes in the Company’s product warranty liability included in “accrued expenses” for the
2018
and
2017
fiscal years are as follows:
