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.

A financial institution has entered into a 10-year currency swap with company Y. Under the terms of the swap, the financial institution receives interest at 3% per annum in Swiss francs and pays interest at 8% per annum in U.S. dollars. Interest payments are exchanged once a year. The principal amounts are 7 million dollars and 10 million francs. Suppose that company Y declares bankruptcy at the end of year 6, when the exchange rate is $0.80 per franc. What is the cost to the financial institution? Assume that, at the end of year 6, the interest rate is 3% per annum in Swiss francs and 8% per annum in U.S. dollars for all maturities. All interest rates are quoted with annual compounding.

A 25-year-old female client presents to the clinic for evaluation of itching and discomfort in the genital area, accompanied by painful urination. The client states that the symptoms started about a week ago and have been getting progressively worse. During the interview, the client states that she had a urinary infection a few months ago. She is sexually active. Upon physical examination, the nurse notes mild reddening of the vaginal walls and a foul-smelling discharge. The nurse asks the client what form of contraception she uses. The client tells the nurse that she has been using a diaphragm for about a year, but she is not totally sure she is using it correctly. She still has difficulty inserting and removing it, and, at times, she feels it inside. The nurse practitioner (NP) she saw at the time told her she wasn’t supposed to feel it if it was positioned correctly. Along with the diaphragm, she requests her partner to use a condom as well for added protection. She has an appointment to go back to the NP for a follow-up. The client stated that she gets yearly Pap smears because her mother had cervical cancer.
Questions:
8. To complete an accurate nursing history, what additional data does the nurse need to obtain?
9. The nurse develops a teaching plan for this client. What information needs to be included?
