Document Summary

Sales revenue (to record subscriptions earned during 2014) Carrying amount balance of liability account at 12/31/14. No entry should be made to accrue for an expense, because the absence of insurance coverage does not mean that an asset has been impaired or a liability has been incurred as of the balance sheet date. The company may, however, appropriate retained earnings for self-insurance as long as actual costs or losses are not charged to the appropriation of retained earnings and no part of the appropriation is transferred to income. Appropriation of retained earnings and/or disclosure in the notes to the financial statements are not required, but are recommended. 300,000 (to record estimated minimum damages on breach-of-contract litigation) Note disclosure would also be required indicating the nature of the loss contingency and that there is an exposure to loss in excess of the amount recorded.
