Hello Sir, for specimen exam applicable from Sept 2018 The examiner answer for Q1 part (b) last sentence "Since the contingent payments relate to the acquisition of the NCI, the offsetting entry would be recognised directly in equity." What is the offsetting entry that refers to in the question? Thank you.
