    Hello sir,

    Please help me distinguish between:

    i) Contingent liability

    iii) Provision

    Thank you

    Liability – PROBABLE obligation
    Provision – PROBABLE obligation – but amount or payment date is less certain – e.g. legal case
    Contingent liability – POSSIBLE obligation
