Lesson 2: REVALUATION
Revaluation - Fair value on the date of revaluation less any subsequent accumulated
depreciation and any subsequent accumulated impairment loss.
Note: Different classes may use different measurement models.Same item of the same
class should use the same model (Principle of consistency). Should be revalued simultaneously
in order to avoid selective revaluation of assets or reporting of amounts which are a mixture of
cost and value at different dates.
Basis of Revaluation:
1. Fair Value - determined by a qualified appraisers/valuers
2. Depreciated Replacement Cost/Sound Value - current purchase price of the asset
minus accumulated depreciation
When an account becomes part of an equity, it will never go out, it will only be recycled
within the equity. Meaning when RS is debited (zeroed out) it will come with a credit in
Retained Earnings.
2. Elimination Approach -
Computations:
a. Depreciation (SV/Remaining Useful Life)
b. Depreciation on cost (CA/Remaining useful life)
c. Depreciation on Appreciation (RS/ Remaining Useful life)
b. To record depreciation:
Depreciation xx (Fair Value/Remaining or RS/Life)
Accumulated Depreciation xx
c. To record the piecemeal realization
Revaluation Surplus xx (RS/Remaining useful life)
Retained Earnings xx
