Depreciate for year 2008 by 5 gives cv of 95 Revalue to 91.2 Dr PorL 3.8 Cr TNCA 3.8 Depreciate for 2009 (91.2/19) ie by 4.8 gives cv of 86.4 Revalue to 91.8 HOWEVER!!! We cannot reverse a revaluation to a level that is greater than what it would have been had we not impaired in the first place. In this example, we cannot reverse to a level >90 (100 - 2 year's depreciation) Dr TNCA 3.6 and Cr PorL 3.6 gives a cv of 90 Now revalue Dr TNCA 1.8 Cr Revaluation Reserve 1.8 gives a cv of 91.8 Ok?
