Related parties payables written off

Post by xkyriakou »

A company has payable amount to a related party (both companies have the same shareholder) which was waived during the reporting period. Can this amount waived be posted directly to retained earnings or should be recognized in P&L ?

what does the paperwork say.... if it was a contractual payable like any other, which was then released, that may be different to an intention to contribute capital. it can be important if the P&L credit would then be taxable...
