    Hello,

    I do not understand well what the accounting entries are when we account for

    A) first a contingent consideration classified as equity (under which item would I find it in equity ?) and
    B) then Its subsequent settlement

    Could you please help ?

    Regards
    Lukas

    Furthermore I found in one ACCA article the following:

    “Contingent consideration classified as equity shall not be remeasured, and its subsequent settlement shall be accounted for within equity (eg Cr share capital/share premium Dr retained earnings).”

    Why would I debit retained earnings ?
