There would be no market distortion. Solving for p (300 - 2.5p = -20 + 1.5p) gets the equilibrium price of $80. At $50 a ton the price floor is below the equilibrium and is therefore not binding.

patriot [66]

Because it is not associated with the duty of care. I also have a duty of care to myself like you have to yourself. If I have struck myself with a hammer then it unjustifiable to sue the company.

A contingent liability which should be disclosed on the balance sheet but does not require footnote disclosure. (true/false)
expeople1 [14]

A responsibility or possible loss that could materialize in the future based on how a particular occurrence plays out is known as a contingent liability.

<h3>What is contingent liability?</h3>

A responsibility or possible loss that could materialize in the future based on how a particular occurrence plays out is known as a contingent liability. Contingent liability can take the form of pending investigations, product warranties, and potential lawsuits. Liabilities that may be incurred by a company dependent on the result of an uncertain future event, such as the result of an ongoing lawsuit, are known as contingent liabilities.

When they are both probable and reasonably estimable as a "contingency" or "worst case" financial consequence, these obligations are not recorded in a company's records and are not displayed on the balance sheet. The kind and size of the contingent liabilities may be described in a footnote to the balance sheet. It is feasible to categories a loss's possibility as remote, improbable, or probable.
