    Sir, For PYQ Specimen exam/ June 2015 Q1 /SBR practice kits mock exam 5

    “Kutchen”

    Just for the understanding purpose:

    1.for the contingent payments of 5m shares on 31 March 2016, the subsequent change will be is financial liabilities/asset or its equity instrument for the next year? as the amt payable is not fixed , therefore should it be financial liabilities?

    Thank you.

    The contingent consideration is shares not money

    Dr Investment in sub
    Cr Equity

    FV measured at SFP date – and not remeasured

    If the number of shares was variable – it may be a financial liability – therefore remeasured – but the examiner won’t do anything nasty like that in a mainstream goodwill calculation

    Will that possible the number of shares issued is fixed but the total amt payable is variable due to fluctuation of the share price, therefore, should be remeasured as its financial liability?

    Thank you.

    I think we are going round in circles – it’s either fixed or variable. In order to pass this exam – you need to keep your understanding simple!
