The following selected circumstances relate to pending lawsuits for Erismus, Incorporated Erismus’s
fiscal year ends on December 31. Financial statements are issued in March 2025. Erismus prepares
its financial statements according to IFRS.
Required:
Indicate the amount Erismus would record as an asset, a liability or if no accrual would be necessary
in the following circumstances.
1. Erismus is defending against a lawsuit. Erismus's management believes the company has a slightly
worse than 50/50 chance of eventually prevailing in court, and that if it loses, the judgment will be
$1,000,000.
2. Erismus is defending against a lawsuit. Erismus's management believes it is probable that the
company will lose in court. If it loses, management believes that damages could fall anywhere in the
range of $2,000,000 to $4,000,000, with any damage in that range equally likely.
3. Erismus is defending against a lawsuit. Erismus's management believes it is probable that the
company will lose in court. If it loses, management believes that damages will eventually be
$5,000,000, with a present value of $3,500,000.
4. Erismus is a plaintiff in a lawsuit. Erismus's management believes it is probable that the company
eventually will prevail in court, and that if it prevails, the judgment will be $1,000,000.
5. Erismus is a plaintiff in a lawsuit. Erismus’s management believes it is virtually certain that the
company eventually will prevail in court, and that if it prevails, the judgment will be $500,000.

2. Erismus would recognize a liability of $3,000,000, as it is more likely than not to lose in court, and
IFRS requires that they take the midpoint of the range of equally likely outcomes. There will also be
note disclosure of the lawsuit.
3. Erismus would recognize a liability of $3,500,000, as it is more likely than not to lose in court, and
IFRS requires that they take the present value of future outcomes if time-value-of-money effects are
material. There will also be note disclosure of the lawsuit.
4. This is a gain contingency. Gain contingencies are accrued under IFRS when the gain is virtually
certain and reasonably estimable. Because this gain is only probable, the gain would not be
recognized. Instead, the gain should be recognized only when realized. A disclosure note is
appropriate.
5. This is a gain contingency. Gain contingencies are accrued under IFRS when the gain is virtually
certain and reasonably estimable. Erismus would recognize a gain of $500,000, recorded at present
value if the time value of money is material.

The following selected transactions relate to contingencies of Classical Tool Makers, Incorporated, which began operations in July 2024.
Classical’s fiscal year ends on December 31. Financial statements are issued in April 2025.
1. Classical's products carry a one-year warranty against manufacturer’s defects. Based on previous experience, warranty costs are
expected to approximate 4% of sales. Sales were $2 million (all credit) for 2024. Actual warranty expenditures were $30,800 and were
recorded as warranty expense when incurred.
2. Although no customer accounts have been shown to be uncollectible, Classical estimates that 2% of credit sales will eventually prove
uncollectible.
3. In December 2024, the state of Tennessee filed suit against Classical, seeking penalties for violations of clean air laws. On January 23,
2025, Classical reached a settlement with state authorities to pay $1.5 million in penalties.
4. Classical is the plaintiff in a $4 million lawsuit filed against a supplier. The suit is in final appeal and attorneys advise that it is virtually
certain that Classical will win the case and be awarded $2.5 million, an amount that is material to Classical.
5. In November 2024, Classical became aware of a design flaw in an industrial saw that poses a potential electrical hazard. A product recall
appears unavoidable. Such an action would likely cost the company $500,000.
6. Classical offered $25 cash rebates on a new model of jigsaw. Customers must mail in a proof-of-purchase seal from the package plus
the cash register receipt to receive the rebate. Experience suggests that 60% of the rebates will be claimed. Ten thousand of the jigsaws
were sold in 2024. Total rebates to customers in 2024 were $105,000 and were recorded as promotional expense when paid.

Because the rebate is offered as a promotion rather than provided as part of a sales transaction, it really is a “coupon” as discussed in
the Additional Consideration Box in the text section for product warranties and guarantees. An expense and liability is recorded for the
estimated amount that will be paid in the future. If the rebate instead was offered as part of a sale transaction, it would be accounted for
as variable consideration as discussed in Chapter 6. In that case, rather than debiting an expense, revenue associated with the sale
would be reduced, and a liability recorded for the estimated amount that will be paid in the future.

Explanation:
1.
This is a loss contingency. Some loss contingencies don't involve liabilities at all. Some contingencies when resolved cause a noncash
asset to be impaired, so accruing it means reducing the related asset rather than recording a liability. The most common loss
contingency of this type is an uncollectible receivable, as described in this situation.

On January 1, 2024, Poplar Fabricators Corporation agreed to grant its employees two weeks of vacation each year, with the stipulation
that vacations earned each year can be taken the following year. For the year ended December 31, 2024, Poplar Fabricators’ employees

journal entry that summarizes 2025 salaries and the payment for 2024 vacations taken in 2025.

No entry is made for a line of credit until a loan actually is made. It would be described in a disclosure note.
May 1
Interest expense ($9,000,000 × 7% × 3 ÷ 12) = $157,500
Notes payable (face amount) = $9,000,000
Cash ($9,000,000 + $157,500) = $9,157,500
December 1
Cash (difference) = $12,415,000
Discount on notes payable ($13,000,000 × 6% × 9 ÷ 12) = $585,000

December 31
The effective interest rate is 6.2827% ($585,000 ÷ $12,415,000) × 12 ÷ 9. So, properly, interest should be recorded at that rate
times the outstanding balance times one-twelfth of a year:
Interest expense ($12,415,000 × 6.2827% × 1 ÷ 12) = $65,000
Discount on notes payable = $65,000
However the same results are achieved if interest is recorded at the discount rate times the maturity amount times one-twelfth
of a year:
Interest expense ($13,000,000 × 6% × 1 ÷ 12) = $65,000
Discount on notes payable = $65,000
2025
September 1
Interest expense ($13,000,000 × 6% × 8 ÷ 12)* = $520,000
Discount on notes payable = $520,000
Notes payable (balance) = $13,000,000
Cash (maturity amount) = $13,000,000
* or, ($12,415,000 × 6.2827% × 8 ÷ 12) = $520,000
