    Good evening sir!

    my question relates to example 10 in the link below.

    https://www.accaglobal.com/pk/en/student/exam-support-resources/fundamentals-exams-study-resources/f7/technical-articles/ppe.html

    The gain double entry is given as:

    Dr Asset
    Dr Accum. dep
    Cr Reval Reserve (RR)

    however, in this example

    the entry is

    Dr Accum Dep
    Cr NCA cost
    Cr RR

    can u please explain this?

    regards

    We need to eliminate the accumulated depreciation, so …

    Dr Accumulated depreciation $15,000
    Cr Revaluation reserve $15,000

    and we need to reduce the balance in the asset account from $100,000 down to $98,000, so …

    Dr Revaluation reserve $2,000
    Cr Asset account $2,000

    The net journal entry works out to:

    DrAccumulated depreciation $15,000
    Cr Asset account $2,000
    Cr Revaluation reserve $13,000

    Is that better?
