Question 3

For each independent situation:
1. A customer sued Vernon Tractor Corp. for $300,000 for breach of contract. Vernon's solicitors advise that they will almost certainly be found liable. Based on previous results, counsel estimates that there is a 70% probability that the courts will award the $300,000 being sought; a 20% probability that $230,000 will be conferred; and a 10% probability that the judgment will be $140,000.
2. Pickering Conveyor and Clutch Ltd. are in the midst of preparing their financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Pickering has been in ongoing discussions with its bankers about renewing its $2,500,000 loan maturing on June 30, 2022. While nothing had been finalized by year-end, the bank did agree to extend the maturity by five years on January 15, 2022.
Required:
Describe how the event should be dealt with in the financial statements and explain why. Prepare all required journal entries.

Accepted Answer

1. The loss is probable and has to be provided for. A liability is established for a single event using the most likely outcome approach.   2. A journal entry is not required.

Question 7

It is early in February 2020 and you are conducting the audit of Blast Off Airline's 2019 financial statements. Through discussion with Blast Off's Chief Financial Officer you learn of matters that have not yet been incorporated into the 2019 financial statements:
In July 2019, 127 passengers on board Blast Off Airlines Flight 007 were seriously injured when the plane missed the runway on final approach. In January 2020, the injured passengers launched a class action lawsuit against Blast Off seeking damages of $15 million. Blast Off's internal investigation of the incident determined that the pilot was intoxicated during the flight. The company's solicitors suggest that if the matter goes to court, Blast Off will be found liable and ordered to pay the $15 million.
In an attempt to reduce its loss, Blast Off's solicitors made a settlement offer of $10 million to the plaintiffs. The litigants' attorney has not provided a formal response but has indicated that the offer is being seriously considered. Blast Off's lawyers estimate that there is a 90% probability the plaintiffs will accept the offer.
