Hello Community,

 

I work for a business which has recently been awarded a settlement package as part of court settlement. What would be the accounting entry to record the money already received?

 

Thanks

You can show the deposit to the bank and credit misc income or something that will flag your accountant at year end to deal with it. Provide the documents for the transaction to your accountant.
