Study Notes
Revaluation of Assets
- Assets are revalued to reflect their current market value.
- The revaluation model is used for certain classes of assets such as office buildings.
- The revaluation surplus is recognized in other comprehensive income and accumulated in equity.
Treatment of Revaluation Gain or Loss
- If the carrying amount of an asset increases due to revaluation, the increase is recognized in other comprehensive income (OCI).
- If the carrying amount of an asset decreases due to revaluation, the decrease is recognized in profit or loss (P&L).
- If a previous revaluation decrease was recognized in P&L, the current revaluation increase is recognized in P&L up to the amount of the previous decrease.
- If a previous revaluation increase was recognized in OCI, the current revaluation decrease is recognized in OCI up to the amount of the previous increase.
Transfer of Revaluation Surplus
- The revaluation surplus in equity can be transferred to retained earnings when the asset is derecognized.
- The transfer can be made when the asset is retired or disposed of, or gradually as the asset is used.
- If the surplus is transferred gradually, the amount transferred is the difference between depreciation based on the revalued carrying amount and depreciation based on the original cost.
Depreciation of Revalued Assets
- The depreciable amount of an asset is allocated systematically over its useful life.
- The depreciation charge is recognized in P&L unless it is included in the carrying amount of another asset.
- Significant parts of an asset are depreciated separately.
