Isn’t the contingent consideration and contingent liabilities of the subsidiary measured at fair value when consolidating.?
this fair value is calculated as a discounted payment weighted with probability , right?
if so, shouldn’t we have to unwind the discount back at the year end? I haven’t seen any questions i did follow this.
Also, if we unwind, that will be within the measurement period. does that trigger the goodwill at acquisition to be recalculated?

1. Only unwind if there’s some kind of hint in the question – you would do it for deferred consideration, but for contingent consideration you’ll just be given an estimate.
2. unwinding is not re-assessing FV at measurement date – so no impact on goodwill.
