    Dear sir,
    I’m confused, why 18,000 is subtracted from 810?
    where it comes from ??

    $1,600,000 x 2% x 5 years = $160,000

    1600-160 = 1440

    2250 – 1440 = 810

    2250/45 = 50,000

    $50,000 is the annual depreciation calculated on the revalued amount. The depreciation on the original cost is 2% x 1,600,000 = $32,000.

    The excess of 50,000 – 32,000 = 18,000 may be transferred from the revaluation surplus to retained earnings (to make it distributable).

    I do explain this in my free lectures on limited companies.
