[Audio] IFRS 2, Share-based Payment, is the topic of discussion today. Joining me is Bill Akins - an ACCA Member, Master of Commerce (M.Com) and CA (ICAEW) Finalist with 6+ years of experience in Audit and Advisory firms. Share-based payments are arrangements when an entity pays for goods and services with equity instruments rather than cash.

What is share-based Payment Transaction.

In cash-settled share-based payment, the entity pays cash or other assets of the entity in an amount that is based on the price or value of equity instruments including shares or share options of the entity or another group entity. For equity-settled share-based payment, the entity pays equity instruments, including shares or share options of the entity or another group entity. These are the main differences between the two types of arrangements..
