Question 44 Not yet answered Marked out of 3.00 Flag question The December 31, 2019 10-K filing for Great Golf Company provides the following footnote information for purchase obligations for the next five years: Unconditional Purchase Obligations During the normal course of its business, the Company enters into agreements to purchase goods and services, including purchase commitments for production materials, endorsement agreements with professional golfers and other endorsers, employment and consulting agreements, and intellectual property licensing agreements pursuant to which the Company is required to pay royalty fees. It is not possible to determine the amounts the Company will ultimately be required to pay under these agreements as they are subject to many variables including performance- based bonuses, reductions in payment obligations if designated minimum performance criteria are not achieved, the Company's sales levels, and severance arrangements.
