The amount of loss that should be recognized is the minimum amount of the range.

Recording a Contingent liability

  • It should only be recorded if the loss is probable and the amount to be incurred as liability can be reasonably estimated.
  • If neither of the above are possible, the loss would be recorded as a footnote.
