    For consolidation questions, for example,

    If we have a revaluation of parent’s/subsidiary’s property of $300.

    The standard adjustment would be to:
    +300 to PPE,
    +300 to other comprehensive income
    +300 to revaluation surplus

    This would apply regardless of whether the revaluation is on parent’s or subsidiary’s property always right ? It doesn’t depend on whether they are included in the fair value of net assets table right ?

    If you are going to continue to insist on using tables for net assets, then the revaluation MUST appear in that table! Of course it must – it’s an increase in net assets

    Of course, this only applies if it’s a revaluation in the subsidiary because I assume that you don’t prepare a net asset table for the parent

    If it’s a post-acquisition increase in the net assets of the subsidiary, it must appear in the net asset table “as at reporting date” and the nci will also be given credit for their share of this increase

    OK?

    Okay. So if its a revaluation on a parent’s property, the adjustments will just be,

    +300 to other comprehensive income
    +300 to revaluation surplus
    We dont have to +300 to PPE right ?

    Also do we have to account for this in the group RE since its a revaluation on the Parent’s property ?

    “+300 to other comprehensive income
    +300 to revaluation surplus
    We dont have to +300 to PPE right ?”

    WHAT???? Where’s your double entry?

    “Also do we have to account for this in the group RE since its a revaluation on the Parent’s property ?”

    Technically, no, you are correct. But you DO have to reflect it / account for it in Consolidated Revaluation Reserve

    “or the part where i ask if we have to account for the revaluation on Parent’s property in the group retained earnings ”

    That part.

    The parent’s revaluation shouldn’t go to retained earnings, technically. But it should go to Group Revaluation Reserve
