product for P4,800,000. At the time of purchase, the patent was valid for 10 years. However, the

What amount should Jayjay Company charge against income during 2020, assuming amortization is
recorded at the end of the such year?

The entity's lawyers believe there is a 30% chance that the court will dismiss the case and the entity will incur no outflow of economic benefits. However, if the court rules in favor of the claimant, the lawyers believe that there is a 20% chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P200,000 and an 80% chance that the entity will be required to pay damages of P100,000. Other outcomes are unlikely. The court is expected to rule in late December 2015. There is no indication that the claimant will settle out of court. A 7% risk adjustment factor to the probability-weighted expected cash flows is considered appropriate to reflect the uncertainties in the cash flow estimates. An appropriate discount rate is 5% per year. The present value of 1 at 5% for one period is 0.95. What is the measurement of the provision for lawsuit on December 31, 2014?arrow_forward
