Hi, Your double entries do not balance in either year 2 or year 3. Presumably the DR and CR should be 100,000 each. So if the vesting conditions are met then you would process the same entry as the previous two years. If you do not meet the vesting conditions then you would remove the credit that has been built up over the first two years by debiting it and then the credit entry would be taken through profit or loss/retained earnings. Thanks
