    Sir,
    If entry for revaluation is
    Dr.ppe
    Cr.p/l
    Cr:oci
    Then what’s the effect these in consolidated profit and loss statement and statement of financial position. I really confused with debit and credit.
    If entry is cr.p&l then what should we do in income statement add or sub??

    Are you a P2 student? Were you exempt F3?

    On a revaluation the double entry is NOT as you have suggested!

    Say we have an asset that originally cost $400,000 and is being depreciated over ten years at $40,000 each year

    After three years the asset is revalued to $450,000

    The double entry would be:

    Dr TNCA $50,000
    Dr Accumulated depreciation $120,000
    Cr Revaluation Reserve $170,000

    Nothing going near PorL nor statement of comprehensive income

    The only justification for a credit to PorL is because there was a prior year impairment that was debited to PorL

    The credit into OCI is the disclosure of the credit entry into the Revaluation Reserve

    A credit into the PorL is a profit / income (this is BASIC F3!) or, in this case, it’s the reversal of a prior year expense

    How are you going to operate as an auditor or practice as an accountant when, in your own words, “I really confused with debit and credit”? Amazing! I admire your bravery 🙂
