    Hi Chris,

    Thank you for your lecture series on F1. I was working out an example from my course book and am struggling out here. Please guide.
    Q. An entity purchased a property 15 years ago at a cost of $100,000 and has depreciated it at a rate of 2% per annum ,using straight line basis. The entity had the property professionally valued at $ 500,000.
    What is the revaluation surplus that would be recorded in the financial statements in respect of this property.

    My working

    Historic cost -100,000
    Depreciation – 2% @15 years- 2000*15=30,000
    Revaluation -500000.
    So carrying value has moved from (100,000-30,000)=70,000 to 500,000 hence difference is 430,000 to OCI hence the journal entry would be
    Dr. Asset- 400,000 (500K$-100K$)
    Dr. Accumulated depreciation 30,000
    Cr. Revaluation surplus 430,000

    The answer in the textbook is 530,000. Please help.

    Hi,

    What text book are you using? From the information given and from your calculation then it looks to me like you have done this correctly.

    Thanks

    I think the answer for the first question should be the one that is given in answer number 2. Ignore the answer for Q1 where it says C and look at the one for Q2, where you will see that you are correct.

    Thanks
