    Hi,

    In the SBR specimen exam 1 we have the case below:

    Acquisition of 70% of House
    On 1 June 20X6, Kutchen acquired 70% of the equity interests of House. The purchase consideration comprised
    20 million shares of $1 of Kutchen at the acquisition date and a further 5 million shares on 31 December 20X7 if
    House’s net profit after taxation was at least $4 million for the year ending on that date

    In the answer section I see that this contingent consideration is not being discounted and I wonder what is the reason.

    Thanks for the advise

    Hi,

    The value of the shares will take into consideration the present value and hence no discounting. Remember that the value of a share, theoretically, is the present value of the future dividends.

    Thanks
