Answer:

Bloomington Inc.

Indication of Liability Amount on the Balance Sheet at December 31, 2019:

Situation            Liability Amount

a.                        $220,000

b.                        $0

c.                        $3,100

d.                        $0

Explanation:

For Bloomington to recognize a liability or record it in its financial statements, the probability that an outflow of economic resources will occur in the future must be established.  Bloomington must also be able to reliably measure the amount of the liability.  These two conditions are satisfied in situations A and C.  For situation B, the contract is not in force as at December 31, 2019, since the drill press will be purchased in January, 2020.  Lastly, for situation D, the amount of the profit-sharing bonus cannot be reasonably and reliably ascertained because the amount to apply the 5% is not clear or known.
