2.U.S. GAAP helps to meet HW’s goal is to show the lowest total liabilities
Explanation:
a.Holmes watson(HW) would be required to accrue a liability under both U.S.GAAP and IFRS. But the amount of the liability would differ betwwen U.S.GAAP. Under U.S.GAAP, the liability would be $6,100,000 the low end of the range, while under IFRS the liability would be $8,600,000 the midpoint of the range (6,100,000+11,100,000 / 2).
b.Under U.S.GAAP, present values would not be used so the liability would be $4,100,000 the low end of the range.
Under IRRS, present values would be used so the liability would be $6,600,000 the midpoint of the range (4,100,000+9,100,000 / 2).
c.This item is probable according to IFRS only, so the liability will accrue only under IFRS and the liability would be $7,100,000 the midpoint of the range (4,100,000+10,100,000 / 2).
d.Under U.S.GAAP, it would be classified as long term liabilities, But short term liabilities under IFRS
