o it is not recognized in the balance sheet as an obligation
Provisions v. Contingent Liabilities
1.Single Obligation
Where a single obligation is being measured, the individual most likely outcome
may be the best estimate of the liability.
3.The risks and uncertainties that inevitably surround many events and circumstances shall be
taken into account in reaching the best estimate of a provision.
4.Where the effect of the time value of money is material, the amount of a provision shall be the
present value of the expenditures expected to be required to settle the obligation.
The discount rate shall be a pre- tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time
value of money and the risks specific to the liability.
Provisions
5. Future events that may affect the amount required to settle an obligation shall be reflected in
the amount of a provision where there is sufficient objective evidence that they will occur.
The effect of possible new legislation is taken into consideration in measuring an existing
obligation when sufficient objective evidence exists that the legislation is virtually certain to be
enacted.
