    Dr Noncurrent
    assets cost/valuation
    (revalued amount – cost)
    Dr Accumulated depreciation
    (eliminate all of existing provision)
    Cr Revaluation surplus/Other Comprehensive Income

    To every debit entry there is a corresponding credit entry.So i do understand when the asset gets revalued the non current assets increases and revaluation surplus increases as well.
    But as we can see above the whats the corresponding credit entry for accumulated depreciation ?

    The rule “Every debit has a credit” does not necessarily mean one-for-one

    An asset with a cost of $800 and accumulated depreciation of $300 is revalued to $900

    The entries would be:

    Dr Accumulated Depreciation $300
    Dr Asset Account $100
    Cr Revaluation Reserve $400

    OK?
