It is nevertheless presented under equity, with a negative sign.(Technically, when a T-account switches from debit to credit - or the other way around - the sign flips.)Nevertheless, a subsequent sale of treasury stock can affect retained earnings when the amount received is below the cost (a loss is made). This loss is subtracted from retained earnings if there are no cumulative gains on prior sales of treasury stock.
