• The entity is defending against a second lawsuit for which management believes it is virtually certain to lose in court.
•If it loses the lawsuit, management estimates damages will fall somewhere in the range of P3,000,000 to P5,000,000 with each amount in that range equally likely to occur.
• The entity is defending against a third lawsuit but the relevant loss will only occur far into the future. The present values of the endpoints of the range are P1,500,000 and P2,500,000.
