A provision for warranty computed by reference to past experience and a scientific estimation constitutes a present obligation and therefore an ascertained liability; it does not qualify as an amount set aside for unascertained liabilities and so is not subject to add-back in the computation of book profit under the tax regime's alternate profit measure.
