Solution

The correct option is B In the report of the approving authority(Board of Directors in the Case of a company, and the corresponding approving authority in the case of any other enterprise)
Contingent assets are never disclosed in the financial statements or cash flow statements.
If they are probable, they are only disclosed in the report of an approving authority.
Note: When the realization of income is virtually certain, then the related asset is not contingent asset and recognition is appropriate in the financial statement.
