Question
Van Rushing Hunting Goods' fiscal year ends on December 31. At the end of the 2024 fiscal year, the company had notes payable of
$11.4 million due on February 8, 2025. Rushing sold 4.0 million shares of its $0.25 par, common stock on February 3, 2025, for $8.0
million. The proceeds from that sale along with $3.4 million from the maturation of some 3-month CDs were used to pay the notes
payable on February 8.
Through his attorney, one of Rushing's construction workers notified management on January 5, 2025, that he planned to sue the
company for $1 million related to a work-site injury on December 20, 2024: As of December 31, 2024, management had been unaware
of the injury, but reached an agreement on February 23, 2025, to settle the matter by paying the employee's medical bills of $73,500.
Rushing's financial statements were finalized on March 3, 2025.
Required:

December 31, 2024?
3. Assume that, as of March 3, management does not think it is probable that it will suffer a material loss because of the injury. What
amount(s) if any, related to the situations described should Rushing report among current liabilities and long-term liabilities in its
balance sheet at December 31, 2024 if the settlement agreement had occurred on March 15, 2025, instead?
4. What amount(s) if any, related to the situations described should Rushing report among current liabilities and long-term liabilities
