Another illustration An entity is a defendant in a patent infringement suit. The lawyers believe that there is a 60% chance that the court will not dismiss the case and the entity will incur an outflow of future economic benefits. If the court rules against the entity and in favor of the claimant, the lawyers believe that there is a 30% chance the entity will be required to pay damages of P4,000,000 and a 70% chance that the damages will be P2,000,000. A 10% risk adjustment factor to the probabilities of the expected cash flows is considered appropriate to reflect the uncertainties in the cash flow estimate. Measurement of provision Weighted probabilities: 30% x 4,000,000 x 60% 70% x 2,000,000 x 60% 720,000 840,000 Expected cash outflow Risk adjustment factor (10% x 1,560,000) 1,560,000 156,000 Estimated amount of provision 1,716,000 The amount of the provision shall be discounted if the effect of the time value of money is material.

ABC is a defendant in a breach of patent lawsuit. If the court rules in favor of the claimant, the lawyers believe that there is a 60 percent chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P2 million (them amount sought by the claimant) and a 40 per cent chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P1 million (the amount that was recently awarded by the same judge in a similar case). Other amounts of damages are unlikely. The court is expected to rule the following year (in late December 2023). There is no indication that the claimant will settle out of court. ABC's lawyers believe there is a probability of very slightly over 50% that ABC will successfully defend the case. A 7 percent risk adjustment factor to the cash flows is considered appropriate to reflect the uncertainties in the cash flow estimates. An appropriate discount rate is 10 percent per year.What amount of provision must be recorded from the lawsuit as of December 31, 2022?

Toy Company provided the following facts regarding pending litigation on December 31, 2020: • The entity is defending against a first lawsuit and believes there is a 51% chance it will lose in court. The entity estimates that damages will be P1,000,000. • 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.
