A promise whereby one party provides certain assurances to another party. Warranties often relate to asset and sales agreements. For example, where an entity sells an asset to a third party it may provide a warranty that the entity has a right to sell the asset, the asset is fit for use and defective parts will be replaced within a specified period. A warranty may give rise to a contingent liability.
