Town, Inc., is preparing its financial statements for the year ending December 31, 20X1. On December 1, 20X1, Town was awarded damages of $75,000 in a patent infringement suit it brought against a competitor. The defendant did not appeal the verdict, and payment was received in January 20X2, prior to the issuance of the financial statements. What is the reporting requirement?
A.Disclosure only
B.Accrual only
C.Both accrual and disclosure
D.Neither accrual nor disclosure
The answer is C, which I get, but if the question stated “the defendant is appealing the verdict” would we still accrue it (disclose only)? I feel like no accrual if fighting the verdict, but I want to make sure.
