Correct Answer

A. Contingent liabilities are potential liabilities that arise due to past events. B. Whether or not the potential liability becomes a recorded liability depends upon the outcome of future events. For example, if a company is currently involved in a product liability lawsuit, then the company may have to pay the plaintiff if the settlement is unfavorable. A contingent liability must be recorded if it is probable that the future events will occur and the amount can be reasonably estimated. C. Contingent liabilities should be disclosed in the notes to the financial statements if it is probable that future events will occur but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated. There should also be note disclosure if it is reasonably possible that the future events will occur, whether or not an amount can be reasonably estimated. D. Disclosure is not required if the probability of future events occurring is remote.
