As far as i remember,

Contingent shares are included in Basic EPS if condition is fully satisfied.

If the condition is not fully satisfied it will be included in Diluted EPS.

I have only used Wiley and not Becker, so I think they mention that contingent shares are to be included only in diluted EPS calculation and not in basic EPS calculation.

yeah, its a little disturbing when you get two different answers. i searched on internet and i am getting info that contingent shares are included in basic EPS, if condition is satisfied. again, its on google, so i really don't know who to follow. i just hope i don't get contingent shares on exam.
