78059.

thereafter.

company decided to adopt a policy in which only 80% of the forwarded leaves shall be accrued. Current daily
salary rates were P400, P440 and P484 in 2018, 2019 and 2020, respectively.

d. Provision
On November 30, 2020 an explosion occurred at the company’s plant totally damaging the plant and causing
additional damages to adjacent neighbors. The carrying value of the plant on the company’s books on the date of
the explosion was at P5M. It had a prevailing fair value of P6M prior to the explosion. No claims had yet been
asserted against the company as of the date of authorization of the financial statements. The management as
corroborated by their counsel, however believes that it its probable that the company would be responsible for
damages to its neighbors and that P4,000,000 would be a reasonable estimate of its liability. The company had an
insurance covering this type of accident. The insurance shall reimburse the company at 80% of the prevailing fair
value of the asset prior to the fire while it has a 40% participation/deductible clause on any payments to be made
for damages caused to neighbors. The reimbursements are virtually certain and that the company is no longer
principally liable over the portion to be reimbursed for damages to other parties.
