Problem $8-7$A $($Static$)$ Record contingencies $($LO$8-5)$

The ink$-$jet printing division of Environmental Printing has grown tremendously in recent years. Assume the following transactions

related to the ink$-$jet division occur during the year ended December $31,2024.$

Environmental Printing is being sued for $$11$ million by Addamax. Plaintiff alleges that the defendants formed an unlawful joint

venture and drove it out of business. The case is expected to go to trial later this year. The likelihood of payment is reasonably

possible.

Environmental Printing is the plaintiff in a $$9$ million lawsuit filed against a competitor in the high$-$end color$-$printer market.

Environmental Printing expects to win the case and be awarded between $$6\mathrm{.}5$ and $$9$ million.

Environmental Printing recently became aware of a design flaw in one of its ink$-$jet printers. A product recall appears probable. Such

an action would likely cost the company between $$500,000$ and $$900,000.$

Required:

Determine the appropriate way Environmental Printing would report the contingencies. Record any amounts as a result of each of

these contingencies if required. $($If no entry is required for a transaction$/$event$,$ select $"$No Journal Entry Required" in the first

account field. Enter your answers in dollars, not in millions. For example, $$5\mathrm{.}5$ million should be entered as $5,500,000.)$
