    Hello, quick question on Chapter 11 NCA -HFS (example 1):

    Under IFRS 5: “Any impairment loss is recognised in P&L unless the asset had been measured at revalued amount under IAS 16 or IAS 38, in which case the impairment is treated as a revaluation decrease”.

    When the Asset is revalued to fair value immediately before classification as held-for-sale, it results in a 1.5m gain to OCI. Shouldn’t this also go to reval reserve under Equity? Therefore, when the asset is recorded at lower of carrying amount (15.4) and FVCTS (15.4 – 0.3 = 15.1), shouldn’t the loss of 0.3m be written down against this reval reserve first before going to P&L?

    Thank you for clarifying 🙂

    It is a very eccentric rule but the answer is correct. The effect is that the transaction costs of 300 always end up in the P&L.

    A bit like writing a current asset down to NRV

    Same rule applies on disposal of investment of shares which are held as FVOCI
