    Solution

    Contingent liabilities are potential obligations that may arise depending on the outcome of future events. They are not actual liabilities until a certain event occurs, and their recognition depends on the probability of the event happening. Contingent liabilities are disclosed in the financial statements but are not recognized as current liabilities.
