I agree that the plastic displacement is (trialFs-currentFs)/ks. However your formulation is not incremental because you are using the trial value. To me this would be the right procedure only in the case in which shearForce is maintained constant. But shearForce is actually varying (right? Where do you account for this variation in your formula?) and as I sketched in my picture there is an elastic contribution that turns into plastic dissipation. Can you see my point? I will find out the analytical explanation.
