Abebio Limited is a listed company with a year end of 31
December 2019. A director of the company has a number of questions
relating to the application of International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS Standards) in its financial statements for the year
ended 31 December 2019. The questions appear in notes 1–3.
Note 1 – Pending legal cases
At a recent board meeting, we discussed legal cases which customers
A and B are bringing against Abebio in respect of the supply of
products which were allegedly faulty. We supplied the goods in the
last three months of the financial year.
We have reliably estimated that if the actions succeed, we are
likely to have to pay out GHS10 million in damages to customer A
and GHS8 million in damages to customer B. Also, Abebio’s legal
advisers have reliably estimated that there is a 60% chance that
customer A’s claim will be successful and a 25% chance that
customer B’s claim will be successful.
I know we have insurance in place to cover us against claims like
this. It is highly probable that any claims which were successful
would be covered under our policy. Therefore, I would have expected
to see a provision for legal claims based on the likelihood of the
claims succeeding. However, I would also have expected to see an
equivalent asset in respect of amounts recoverable from the
insurance company. The financial statements do contain a provision
for GHS10 million but no equivalent asset. Disclosure of the
information relating to both of the claims and the associated
insurance is made in the notes to the financial statements.
Required:
Given the above facts, discuss the correct accounting treatment of
the pending legal cases.
