How to Account for Share Based Compensation [Video]

When a company grants share-based compensation that has a performance condition (which means a certain sales, profit, or other performance condition must be met in order for the share-based compensation to vest), the company must assess at the end of each period whether it is probable that the performance condition will be met. If it is not probable that the performance condition will be met, the company must reverse any compensation expense previously recorded for this share-based compensation (if no compensation expense was previously recorded, the company wouldn't make a journal entry). If it is probable that the performance condition will be met, the company should record compensation expense. Note that for share-based compensation with a MARKET condition (based on the stock price) instead of a performance condition, the company should record compensation expense whether or not it is probable that the market condition will be met. — Edspira is the creation of Michael McLaughlin, an award-winning professor who went from teenage homelessness to a PhD.
