Given below are independent situations. Assume that the financial year for each business entity ends on 30 June. A manufacturing entity, Company X, was sued by a neighbouring factory for illegal dumping of wastes on its property, which was also detrimental to the environment. The legal suit for damages estimated at RM450,000 took place on 6 April 2020. Company Xs legal advisers are of the opinion that the facts of the case are, however, disputable and that Company X may or may not be found liable. The court hearing is scheduled for 17 August 2020. Company Y raised additional funds needed to expand its business by issuing an 8% RM1 million bonds. The bonds will mature and are redeemable at the end of 5 years. Cost of issue paid was RM60,000. Company Z sold sewing machines, for which a 1-year warranty is given to its customers. The probability of major defects is 10% and for minor defects is 90% of sewing machines sold. Based on the sales made during the year ended 30 June 2020, the estimated repair costs are RM100,000 for major defects and RM80,000 for minor defects.
