    It all depends on how the examiner has described the investment within the question.

    If he has indicated that the asset is held at “fair value through profit and loss” then the movement in that asset goes through profit and loss account

    If, alternatively, he has described it as held at “fair value through comprehensive income” then, guess what! the movement should be reflected in statement of comprehensive income

    Does that do it for you? If not, post again

    Non-current asset revaluations go through comprehensive income (unless previously impaired, in which case they go through profit and loss to “undo” the impairment)
