Answer:

is made if it is more likely than not that the liability has been incurred.

Explanation:

When contingent liability is recorded it is recorded by debiting income statement and creating a liability in balance sheet, also it is not accounted for until the amount of liability is pretty certain as without being clear about its occurrence and the amount involved the liability cannot be recorded.

There is no such loss account, there exists only income statement.

Therefore, with the above we can conclude that contingent liability is recorded only if:

is made if it is more likely than not that the liability has been incurred.

Mr. Dealer bought a fleet of SUVs (sport utility vehicles) from General Motors (GM) on credit, GM agreeing not to assign the res
Temka [501]

Answer:

Yes, Dealer could collect damages from GM because basically GM breached the contract. Any time a contract is breached, the non-breaching party can sue. But the real question here is what amount could the court assign to Dealer as compensation for damages incurred. If you want to rephrase this question, it would be: What damages did Dealer suffer due to GM's breach.

If the damages are not significant, then the court will probably assign some amount for nominal damages. To be honest, the greatest expenses here are actually the legal costs of the lawsuit. Unless Dealer can prove that assigning the contract actually hurt them (which I doubt), then the court will assign a small amount. Sometimes nominal damages can be very small and mostly symbolic, e.g. $1.
