Solution

The correct option is B False
False. A general reserve is created out of the current year's profit without any specific purpose or objective. They are created to strengthen the company and to meet the liabilities that might arise contingent or not. Hence, it cannot be said that general reserves are created to meet contingent liability. They are created to meet any liability known or unknown.
