The Kerr-Graham Corporation had two operating divisions, one manufacturing cooking utensils and the other herb gardens. Both divisions qualified as separate components of the entity. On September 15, 2015, the company adopted a plan to sell the assets of the herb garden division. The actual sale was made on December 8, 2015, at a price of $1.8 million. The book value of the division’s asset was $3 million, resulting in a before-tax loss of $1.2 million on the sale.

Plaintiff alleges that the defendants formed an unlawful joint venture and drove it out of business. The case is expected to go to trial later this year. The likelihood of payment is reasonably possible. Environmental Printing is the plaintiff in an $7 million lawsuit filed against a competitor in the high-end color-printer market. Environmental Printing expects to win the case and be awarded between $4.5 and $7 million.  Environmental Printing recently became aware of a design flaw in one of its ink-jet printers.
