When Oprah gave away Pontiac G6 sedans to her TV audience, was the value of the cars taxable? On Labor Day weekend in 2006, World Furniture Mall in Plano, Illinois, gave away $275,000 of furniture because the Chicago Bears shut out the Green Bay Packers in the team’s football season opener at Lambeau Field in Green Bay (26–0). Was the free furniture in the form of a discount or rebate taxable, or should the furniture company have handed the customers a Form 1099–MISC?

Joe sends a check for $218 to the University by July 1 of every year to cover the cost of two tickets for each of the 7 home games plus $50 for a parking permit. Joe has difficulty finding friends to accompany him to the games. However, he is adamant that he must go to the games because he has paid for the tickets. Friends insist that the cost of the tickets is a sunk cost and that the decision should be based on future costs that would be different between alternatives – going to the game and not going to the game. Friends have calculated the fuel for the 6-hour round trip costs $15 and two meals while away from home for the game can easily cost $30 or more.
Required
Write a list to Joe outlining the relevant costs associated with a trip to the game.
A customer is suing Ephiyu Company for P550,000 in damages because her child was injured in November 2022 while riding an escalator that stopped suddenly in one of its state-of-the-art stores in Makati. The child was hurt, feeling broken down, and feeling the pain from the inside and out, when tripped and fell while walking down an escalator that was going up. Legal counsel feels that the child is partially at fault, and so deserves all the pain, but that it is probable that the lawsuit will be settled for between P250,000 and P550,000, with the following likely outcome: 30% to be settled at P250,000; 45% to be settled at P340.000 and 25% to be settled at P550,000. How much provision for damages shall be included in the liability section as of December 31, 2022?
