    Hello,

    Q. If a company wished to maintain the carrying amount in the financial statements of its
    non-current assets, which of the following would it be unlikely to do?
    ?? Enter into a sale and short-term leaseback
    ?? Account for asset-based government grants using the deferral method
    ?? Revalue its properties
    ?? Change the depreciation method for new asset acquisitions from 25% reducing balance to
    ten years straight line

    the answer is option a and that is fine with me but what about option c i.e. revalue the properties. I mean if a co. wants to maintain its C.V. then why would it revalue its properties?

    Hi,

    Great to hear from you again. There is a key difference between the words maintain and increase. By revaluing the properties then the value of the NCA would increase and it is not therefore maintaining it at the same/similar value.

    Thanks
