rewrite using "provision"
My reading of the sentence is that a provision ("Rückstellung") is formed for these expenses.
For example, in its 2010 financial statements, the Austrian central bank (OeNB) translates
"Darin sind entrichtete und rückgestellte Pensionskassenbeiträge enthalten."
http://www.oenb.at/de/img/gb_2009_tcm14-192068.pdf
as
"This item includes pension plan contributions and provisions for such contributions."

It probably refers to liability claims, wherein, expenses incurred on complaints related to quality problems are refunded.
